          MOMENT OF SILENCE TO HONOR POSTAL SERVICE EMPLOYEES

  (Mr. WAMP asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WAMP. Mr. Speaker, I think it would be appropriate tonight with 
this many Members present and with our new Members present and on the 
job, if we as a body, in a unified way, stood together for a moment of 
silence in memory of the Postal Service employees that have lost their 
lives; and in honor of all of the families and all of those U.S. Postal 
Service employees around the country that work for us day in and day 
out, that we would bow our heads as the United States Congress in their 
honor and in their memory and pray for our country at this time in our 
country's history. Please stand.
