               ARIZONA BEGINS ITS 100TH ANNIVERSARY TODAY

  (Mr. SCHWEIKERT asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Mr. SCHWEIKERT. Mr. Speaker, today is one of those special days, and 
for many of us, you think of it as Valentine's Day, but for Arizona, 
this is our 99th birthday. Today, we begin our 100th year, and the 
wonderful folks in Arizona, which is a stunningly beautiful State, for 
those of you who have not had a chance to visit us--from the Grand 
Canyon, down through the mountains, down even further to the desert 
plateaus, to the grasslands down south--come join us for our 100th 
anniversary celebration.
  All through this year, all up and down the State, there are going to 
be special activities, special dinners, special commemorations for the 
baby State, the valentine State that is Arizona, as it begins its 100th 
anniversary today.
