MOMENT OF SILENCE RECOGNIZING SHAWN JACKSON AND RENZO SMITH, VICTIMS OF 
        THE HUGUENOT HIGH SCHOOL SHOOTING IN RICHMOND, VIRGINIA

  (Mrs. McCLELLAN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. McCLELLAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today alongside members of the 
Virginia delegation as we mourn the loss of Shawn Jackson, an 18-year-
old high school graduate, and Renzo Smith, his stepfather, an Army 
veteran.
  Just 20 minutes after Shawn received his high school diploma, both 
were tragically shot and killed when a gunman opened fire at the 
Huguenot High School graduation in Richmond last week.
  We pray for Shawn's mother, Tameeka Jackson-Smith, and his sister, 
Renya Jackson-Smith, who, at 9 years old, was struck by a car fleeing 
the scene that night.
  We invite all Members of the body to join us in a moment of silence 
to remember Shawn and Renzo.
