HOUSE PASSES WARTIME SUPPLEMENTAL UNANIMOUSLY
(Mr. OSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. OSE. Mr. Speaker, we just passed a wartime supplemental, and I
wanted to make a note that it was unanimously done. I think it is a
marvelous tribute to this country and this body that when this country
is faced with the challenges that we have in front of us and our young
people are deployed to protect us and our interests, that we bind
together as a team, that we bind together as a country and that our
leadership is able to take us to where we need to go.
The work that the gentleman from Florida (Mr. Young) and the
gentleman from Wisconsin (Mr. Obey) have done in working with the
Senate is a marvelous tribute to their skills as legislators, and to
the gentleman from Illinois (Mr. Hastert) and the gentlewoman from
California (Ms. Pelosi) as Speaker and minority leader here in the
House, they have my commendations. I am pleased to be here and be part
of this momentous occasion.
