                         Thursday, May 31, 2012

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Warminster 
based production team responsible for the anti-bullying album ``All 
About Bullies . . . Big and Small.'' Congratulations to Steve Pullara, 
Jim Cravero, Gloria Domina, Kevin Mackie and Patrick Robinson for their 
Grammy award winning production for best children's album. Your album 
is inspiring to us all, and it paves the way in the fight against 
bullying amongst our nation's youth.
  Today, bullying is a serious problem in our schools, and it has 
manifested into cyber bullying in our homes. Statistics show that 
nearly 77 percent of our children have been bullied at some point in 
their lives, and some of these cases have even led to suicide.
  In order to prevent bullying throughout our nation, it is necessary 
to apply unique and creative methods that resonate with younger 
generations. Featuring 37 songs, poems and short stories performed by 
prominent American artists, ``All About Bullies . . . Big and Small'' 
sends a powerful anti-bullying message to its listeners.
  Thank you once again to the producers of the album for doing their 
part to make not only Bucks County, but the entire nation, a better, 
safer place for everyone. I am honored to represent these Grammy 
winners in Congress, and hope they will continue their efforts.
