                               speech of

                         HON. CHARLES B. RANGEL

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 20, 2004

  Mr. RANGEL. Mr. Speaker, the minute of silence observed by Members of 
the House of Representatives on Thursday, May 20 was an appropriate way 
of showing our deep respect for the servicemen and women who have made 
the ultimate sacrifice while fighting for our country in Iraq.
  The Democratic and Republican leaderships have invited all members to 
submit written statements, honoring our fallen soldiers, for 
publication in the Congressional Record. A special section of the 
Congressional Record, dedicated to Memorial Day statements, will be 
kept open for submissions until Thursday, June 3.
  I encourage you to submit such a statement. The fallen soldiers and 
their families deserve our highest recognition.
