  (Mr. SPRATT asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. SPRATT. Mr. Speaker, I speak for myself, as the chairman of the 
Budget Committee, and for Mr. Ryan, as the ranking member, expressing 
our appreciation to our staff, who have done a marvelous job on both 
sides of the aisle in working together on this budget resolution that 
ultimately prevailed today.
  I place into the Record the names of the staffers who have been key 
participants in the effort on our side of the aisle.
