SWEARING IN OF THE HONORABLE HEATHER WILSON, OF NEW MEXICO, AS A MEMBER 
                              OF THE HOUSE

  Mr. ARMEY. Mr. Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that the gentlewoman 
from New Mexico, Ms. Heather Wilson, be permitted to take the oath of 
office today. Her certificate of election has not yet arrived, but 
there is no contest; and no question has been raised with regard to her 
election.
  The SPEAKER. Is there objection to the gentleman from Texas?
  There was no objection.
  The SPEAKER. The Representative-elect and the Members of the New 
Mexico delegation may come forward.
  Ms. Wilson appeared at the bar of the House and took the oath of 
office, as follows:
  Do you solemnly swear that you will support and defend the 
Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and 
domestic; that you will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; 
that you take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or 
purpose of evasion, and that you will well and faithfully discharge the 
duties of the office on which you are about to enter. So help you God.
  The SPEAKER. Congratulations.

                          ____________________
