EXPRESSING CONGRATULATIONS TO NEW RANKING MINORITY MEMBER ON COMMITTEE 
                               ON SCIENCE

  (Mr. MENENDEZ asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MENENDEZ. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
congratulate, on behalf of all the members of the Democratic Caucus, 
our colleague, the gentleman from Tennessee (Mr. Gordon), whom the 
Democratic Caucus elected as the new ranking member on the Committee on 
Science. He is a proven leader on the Committee on Science and within 
this body, and I know that he will serve our Nation well in his new 
capacity.
