                      HONORING OUR BRAVE VETERANS

  (Mr. VALADAO asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. VALADAO. Mr. Speaker, as we celebrate our veterans next week, I 
rise to honor the dedication and selflessness of the brave men and 
women who have served our Nation.
  California's 21st Congressional District is home to thousands of 
veterans who are especially valued members of our community. Our 
veterans have made incredible sacrifices to the cause of freedom, and 
America is forever in their debt.
  As Members of Congress, we have the responsibility to ensure our 
veterans receive the benefits they are entitled. Those who have 
courageously served our country deserve our support, and we must 
protect their care.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in thanking our veterans 
for their service to our country in honor of this Veterans Day. It is a 
privilege to represent these men and women in Congress.
