                         HOUSE ACCOMPLISHMENTS

  (Mr. GINGREY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GINGREY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to proudly reflect upon the 
accomplishments of this Congress. As we head into the August district 
work period, let us look back on all we have achieved for the American 
people.
  Under Republican leadership this House has passed legislation to 
bolster our economy and prevent a tax increase on millions of 
Americans, including small business owners, seniors, and families.
  We have worked to pass a fiscally responsible budget. We have funded 
the War on Terror, giving our servicemen and women the tools and 
support they need to take the fight to the enemy. Equally important, we 
have worked to secure this homeland.
  We have passed legislation helping American families. We got tough on 
child exploitation over the Internet and voted to increase funding and 
resources to fight methamphetamine in all our communities. We have 
passed legislation to protect our Pledge of Allegiance, to curb illegal 
Internet gambling, and to protect our right to display the American 
flag.
  Mr. Speaker, the list goes on and on and on. This Congress is working 
for the American people, and I ask that you join me in praising all 
that we have accomplished.
