                       Tuesday, November 14, 2006

  Mr. SULLIVAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of the Sober Truth 
on Preventing Underage Drinking Act (Stop Act), which tackles an 
important issue facing families in every congressional district, the 
issue of underage drinking. If present for rollcall vote 521 on H.R. 
864, the measure would have my strong support.
  The Stop Act serves to restate the importance of state alcohol laws 
in fighting underage drinking while supplementing federal research and 
advocacy with additional funds. I am proud to support this legislation 
to confront the growing problem of underage drinking.
