                     ORANGEBURG PREPARATORY SCHOOL

  (Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. This morning, 79 students from 
Orangeburg Preparatory School in South Carolina's Second District are 
in the Capitol to learn about the legislative process and the history 
of the Nation's Capitol Building. Under the leadership of Head Master 
Kelly Mills, the students at Orangeburg Preparatory School excel both 
in and out of the classroom. Such success is achieved through 
partnerships between the community, teachers, parents, students, and 
alumni.
  As a member of the House Education and Labor Committee, I am grateful 
to spend time with these bright young students and will continue to 
pursue policies that advance fiscally responsible reforms that will 
improve their educational opportunities through higher education and 
beyond. We need insurance reform, not big government takeover. I also 
want to note that when you meet them, the students here today from 
Orangeburg Prep continue a tradition to be the best-dressed student 
group to visit the Capitol.
  In conclusion, God bless our troops, and we will never September the 
11th in the global war on terrorism.
