MOMENT OF SILENCE IN MEMORY OF THE LATE HONORABLE JOE D. WAGGONER, JR., 
                       FORMER MEMBER OF CONGRESS

  (Mr. McCRERY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. McCRERY. Mr. Speaker, it's my sad duty to inform the House of the 
death of former Member Joe D. Waggoner, Jr., from Louisiana. 
Congressman Waggoner served this House with distinction on the Ways and 
Means Committee, as a subcommittee chairman on the Ways and Means, 
served in the House for nearly 18 years, and Congressman Waggoner 
passed away this weekend.
  So, Mr. Speaker, I would ask, in memory of Congressman Waggoner, for 
the House to please rise and have a moment of silence.
