                                 ______
                                 

                             HON. TOM RICE

                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, September 3, 2021

  Mr. RICE of South Carolina. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
Constitution Week and the Theodosia Burr Chapter of the Daughters of 
the American Revolution in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
  It is a privilege and duty of the American people to commemorate the 
two hundred thirty-fourth anniversary of the drafting of the 
Constitution of the United States of America by the Constitutional 
Convention. As citizens of this great nation, we must reaffirm the 
ideals the Framers of the Constitution had in 1787.
  Public Law 915 guarantees the issuing of a proclamation each year by 
the President of the Unites States of America designating September 17 
through 23 as Constitution Week. It is fitting and proper to officially 
recognize this magnificent document and the anniversary of its 
creation.
  Madam Speaker, I join the Theodosia Burr Chapter of the Daughters of 
the American Revolution and the American people in recognizing 
September 17 through September 23, 2021 as Constitution Week and honor 
the Framers for their contributions.
