                          PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

  The CLERK. The Members-elect and their guests will please remain 
standing and join in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag.
  The Clerk led the Pledge of Allegiance as follows:

       I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of 
     America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation 
     under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

  The CLERK. Representatives-elect, this is the day fixed by the 20th 
amendment to the Constitution and Public Law 108-433 for the meeting of 
the 109th Congress and, as the law directs, the Clerk of the House has 
prepared the official roll of the Representatives-elect.
  Certificates of election covering 435 seats in the 109th Congress 
have been received by the Clerk of the House, and the names of those 
persons whose credentials show that they were regularly elected as 
representatives in accordance with the laws of their respective States 
or of the United States will be called.
  Without objection, the Representatives-elect will record their 
presence by electronic device and their names will be reported in 
alphabetical order by States, beginning with the State of Alabama, to 
determine whether a quorum is present.
  There was no objection.
  The call was taken by electronic device, and the following 
Representatives-elect responded to their names:
