  Ms. EDDIE BERNICE JOHNSON of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise to commend 
the Jane Douglas Chapter of the National Society, Daughters of the 
American Revolution for designating September 17 through 23 as 
Constitution Week.
  Constitution Week commemorates the 208th anniversary of the drafting 
of the Constitution of the United States of America.
  The Daughters of the American Revolution understand the importance of 
the provisions and principles contained in the Constitution. 

[[Page E 1470]]
Recognition of this historic event is an opportunity for all Americans 
to realize the achievements of the Framers of the Constitution and the 
rights, privileges, and responsibilities it affords.
  Again, I commend the Jane Douglas Chapter of the National Society, 
Daughters of the American Revolution, for its genuine effort in urging 
all our citizens to reflect during Constitution Week on the many 
benefits of our Federal Constitution and American citizenship.
