   CONGRATULATING THE ATLANTA BRAVES ON WINNING THE 2021 WORLD SERIES

  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
and applaud the 2021 World Series Champions, the Atlanta Braves. I am 
enormously proud of the Atlanta Braves, their players, their coaches, 
and especially their fans for their determination and resiliency on a 
long road to this championship title.
  The last time the Braves won the World Series was 1995. I can finally 
say that my Atlanta Braves are champions once again. With the World 
Series victory, the Braves completed one of history's greatest 
championship turnarounds.
  Plagued by injuries to their best pitcher and outfielder, the Braves 
had a losing record in August. Through much adversity, the Braves 
relied on a number of players and others who helped them to regain the 
World Series title.
  As Braves fans in Georgia and around the world celebrate, I 
congratulate this team on a remarkable season, a 2021 World Series 
title, and a place in the history books.
  The city and people of Atlanta, the great State of Georgia, and the 
great Braves nation will be forever grateful to the 2021 Atlanta Braves 
for breaking the curse and winning it all.
  The Atlanta Braves are the World Series champions.
  Go Braves.
  The SPEAKER pro tempore. Members are reminded to maintain proper 
decorum while in the Chamber.
