  MOURNING THE TRAGEDY AT UVA AND HONORING THE BRAVERY OF MIKE HOLLINS

  (Mr. GOOD of Virginia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. GOOD of Virginia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to mourn the 
senseless and tragic loss of life at the University of Virginia on 
November 13, but I also rise to recognize and honor the bravery 
displayed by Mike Hollins during the recent shooting at the University 
of Virginia.
  After getting off the bus and directing two students to run to 
safety, Mike Hollins, a running back on the Cavaliers football team, 
turned around and attempted to reboard the bus to help his teammates 
and others still trapped with the gunman.
  Mike's bravery was met with evil, however, as he was shot while 
trying to protect those still in harm's way. Thankfully, Mike has been 
released from the hospital. I pray he will continue to have a full and 
complete recovery.
  My prayers are also with the families of D'Sean Perry, Lavel Davis, 
Jr., and Devin Chandler, who are deeply hurting from the loss of their 
loved ones, along with the entire University of Virginia community.
  We are always saddened in the face of tragedy, but bravery like Mike 
Hollins showed gives us hope. May God continue to heal our land.
