                             MARCH FOR LIFE

  (Mr. MULLIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. MULLIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today because I believe every life is 
a gift. Our Nation was built on the right to life. Our Founding Fathers 
wrote that all men are created equal and that we are endowed by the 
Creator with certain undeniable rights: the right to life, liberty, and 
the pursuit of happiness. Our government was instituted to secure these 
rights, not take them away.
  Mr. Speaker, I stand with hundreds of thousands of people from across 
the country who have traveled to our Nation's Capital to tell lawmakers 
that we must protect the innocent and that we must fight for those who 
cannot defend themselves. I am proud of the many young people who are 
in Washington, D.C., this week to defend life. You are a voice for the 
voiceless, and you are the future.
  I am proud to join so many of my colleagues in this Chamber today to 
defend life and spread this message that every life is a gift.
