                  NATIONAL DAY OF THE AMERICAN COWBOY

  Mr. ENZI. Mr. President, I rise to remember my dear friend and 
colleague, Senator Craig Thomas. Craig was a champion for Wyoming, the 
West, and its values. Every year, for the last several years, Craig 
championed a resolution honoring the American cowboy. A true cowboy in 
his own right, Craig sought to honor those who serve as stewards of the 
land, embody the courageous and daring spirit of the West, and uphold 
the values of freedom and responsibility that we all cherish.
  I was proud to support my friend in this endeavor over the years to 
honor these great individuals, and today, I am pleased the President 
has also stated his support for the National Day of the American 
Cowboy. As cowboys, cowgirls, family, and friends gather on July 28, 
2007, to celebrate at Cheyenne Frontier Days and nationwide, I extend 
my best wishes to all.
