              IN HONOR OF THE UNITED STATES CAPITOL POLICE

  Mr. REID. Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the Senate 
proceed to the consideration of S. Res. 170 submitted earlier today by 
Senator Wellstone.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. The clerk will report the resolution by title.
  The assistant legislative clerk read as follows:

       A resolution (S. Res. 170) honoring the United States 
     Capitol Police for their commitment to security at the United 
     States Capitol, particularly on and since September 11, 2001.

  There being no objection, the Senate proceeded to consider the 
resolution.
  Mr. REID. Madam President, I express my appreciation to Senator 
Wellstone for moving forward on this resolution to recognize the 
commitment the Capitol Police have made to each one of us, and every 
staff member, and every person who visits the United States Capitol. 
They did that before September 11, and following September 11 that has 
been magnified. They do tremendous work. They are as well trained as 
any police officers in the world. And every day they honor the 
Government for whom they work.
  Madam President, I ask unanimous consent that the resolution and 
preamble be agreed to en bloc, the motion to reconsider be laid upon 
the table en bloc, and that any statements relating thereto be printed 
in the Record.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER. Without objection, it is so ordered.
  The resolution (S. Res. 170) was agreed to.
  The preamble was agreed to.
  The resolution, with its preamble, is printed in today's Record under 
``Submitted Resolutions.''
