                 CELEBRATING RUSH COUNTY'S BICENTENNIAL

  (Mr. PENCE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. PENCE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and honor Rush 
County on the grand occasion of its bicentennial.
  Rush County was founded in 1822 by one of the signers of the 
Declaration of Independence, Dr. Benjamin Rush. Not only is the history 
rich in Rush County, but so is the hospitality and the heart of its 
residents.
  Rushville, the county seat, was recognized by my State of Indiana as 
a ``Stellar Community,'' one of only 12 communities to be honored as 
such.
  From its lively history to its heartwarming and welcoming citizens, 
we invite everyone here today in the House to celebrate with us this 
bicentennial year for Rush County.
