  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the town of Madison, 
North Carolina as they celebrate the town's bicentennial year. Located 
in western Rockingham county, Madison is full of rich history and 
embodies the integrity and charm of the sixth district. As Madison 
continues its bicentennial festival, I want to congratulate Mayor David 
Myers, the Board of Aldermen, and the citizens of Madison on this 
incredible milestone. North Carolina is one of only 24 other states 
that can claim a city or town with a bicentennial trademark, and I am 
proud to represent such a joyous community.
  I offer my sincere congratulations to the town of Madison on its 
200th anniversary and join in celebration of the town's unique history, 
as well as its prosperous future.
