      APPRECIATION FOR THE AFRICAN AMERICAN POLICE OFFICERS LEAGUE

  (Ms. JACKSON LEE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute.)
  Ms. JACKSON LEE. Mr. Speaker, just a few minutes ago, a Member stood 
on this floor to charge the President of the United States with high 
crimes and misdemeanors and that he failed to faithfully execute his 
duties.
  As a member of the Judiciary Committee having participated in several 
impeachments, differences in policies, differences in parties does not 
reflect, at any time, a cause for impeachment.
  Mr. Speaker, let me express my appreciation on a different topic to 
the African American Police Officers League that had an outstanding 
program today of giving to young people

scholarships and interacting with those young people. That kind of 
interaction fosters good police-community relationships.
  Since this is gun antiviolence month, it was good for these young 
people to be around police officers who live in their neighborhood, 
went to their high schools, and care about them and their families. 
This interaction makes a difference. This is the new policing, and I 
thank the African American Police Officers League and members of the 
Houston Police Department for recognizing how we work with our children 
and how we inspire them.

  Mr. Speaker, I thank AAPOL for their service.
