IN HONOR OF HOLY CROSS LUTHERAN SCHOOL AND THEIR EFFORTS TO PROMOTE SUN 
                                 SAFETY

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. PETE SESSIONS

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, June 25, 2007

  Mr. SESSIONS. Madam Speaker, I rise to acknowledge Holy Cross 
Lutheran School and their recognition by the United States 
Environmental Protection Agency. Recently the Achievements in 
Stratospheric Ozone Protection: Progress Report, a publication by the 
United States Environmental Protection Agency, highlighted the school's 
assistance in encouraging sun safety.
  The United States Environmental Protection Agency raises awareness 
about the effects of ozone depletion on public health. It also works to 
educate young children about the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays 
and how to reduce the risk of skin cancer as a result from over 
exposure to the sun. The efforts of the United States Environmental 
Protection Agency would not be possible without the volunteer 
assistance of schools like Holy Cross Lutheran School.
  I know I speak for all of Dallas when I say that we are very proud to 
have such an outstanding school in the 32nd District of Texas. The 
school is an example to all and I wish to thank them here on the floor 
of the U.S. House of Representatives for all of their hard work.
