               COMMEMORATING JUNETEENTH NATIONAL HOLIDAY

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Madam Speaker, beginning tomorrow there will 
be thousands and thousands of events, commemorations, and activities 
all over America celebrating Juneteenth, which will be June 19. There 
will be many of those in the district that I represent, at Malcolm X 
College and also at the JLM Center.
  I look forward to participating with many of my constituents as we 
remember and recall but project the future,

and that is what Juneteenth means. We look back to go forward.
  Happy Juneteenth to all of the constituents in my district and 
throughout America.
