                  WELCOMING REVEREND DR. KEN CHRONIGER

  The SPEAKER. Without objection, the gentleman from New York (Mr. 
Reed) is recognized for 1 minute.
  There was no objection.
  Mr. REED. Today, I welcome to the House Chamber a great individual 
from our district, Pastor Ken Chroniger. Pastor Ken is the spiritual 
leader of 70 in my district in Alfred Station, New York, for the 
Seventh Day Baptist Church there. It is an honor to have Pastor Ken 
with us.
  I have great respect for Pastor Ken, not only for what he does for 
his congregation, but for what he does for the community, in 
particular, the baseball games that we have attended together for the 
youth as they have participated in their summer leagues in Alfred 
Station.
  With that, Mr. Speaker, I welcome Pastor Ken as we from the Southern 
Tier and the Finger Lakes, the beautiful area of New York, join him in 
starting off our deliberations here today.
