                      LEARNING FROM KIDS CONGRESS

  (Mrs. BEATTY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mrs. BEATTY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to address this House to 
salute Assistant Democratic Leader   Joe Neguse.
  Today was a historic day as we sat on this very floor at 8 a.m. today 
for Kids Congress. Today, we had children from preschool to high 
school, and from California to New York to Columbus, Ohio.
  My grandchildren were able to sit here and hear about this amazing 
gallery that we sit in, this Chamber. Leah, 10 years old, and Spencer, 
9 years old, sat here with Congressman   Joe Neguse's daughter, young 
Natalie.
  Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi reminded us that the time has found us.

She talked about Abraham Lincoln and the jacket that he wore with that 
pin that she wears that was inscribed and monogrammed in his jacket: 
``One Country, One Destiny.''
  Madam Speaker, today, this House Chamber could learn a lot from what 
Kids Congress did today. They practiced civility, respect, and decorum 
for this Chamber. So let today be a day that we are proud of, and maybe 
we too could emulate Kids Congress.
