  NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH
  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
recognize the month of July as National Ice Cream Month and celebrate 
America's favorite frozen dairy treat.
  As the weather gets hotter and the days get longer, there truly is 
nothing like a bowl of sweet, smooth ice cream to help turn down the 
heat. Dedicated in the United States by the late President Ronald 
Reagan, National Ice Cream Month serves to boost spirits and cool 
temperatures, especially on a day as warm as this one.
  Not just a staple of the American diet, American ice cream also 
boosts local communities. Keep an eye out for the more than half of ice 
cream shops in the United States that are family owned and have been in 
operation for more than 50 years.
  Madam Speaker, you can support local scoop shops the entire month 
throughout the summer. Enjoy the sweetest month of the year by 
supporting local businesses and industry.
