        MOMENT OF SILENCE HONORING CONGRESSMAN JAMES H. BILBRAY

  (Ms. TITUS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. TITUS. Madam Speaker, I rise to celebrate the life and remember 
the accomplishments of Congressman James H. Bilbray. Jim was a native 
son of Nevada who served as a judge, a university regent, and a State 
legislator before being elected to the House of Representatives from 
Nevada's First District where he served from 1987 to 1995.
  Congressman Bilbray was a man ahead of his time. He was an early 
environmentalist before going green was considered cool. His 
legislation to protect Red Rock Canyon preserved a special place for 
future generations. His legacy will live on in the magnificent 
formations, Native American petroglyphs, and iconic wildlife and flora 
and fauna found there.
  Madam Speaker, I ask now that the House observe a moment of silence 
in his honor.
