  Mr. ALTMIRE. Madam Speaker, I would like to wish the Pittsburgh 
Chapter of the Organization of Chinese-Americans a happy and healthy 
New Year for the year 4706, the year of the rat.
  I hope this New Year brings the Chinese-American community of 
Pittsburgh much joy and thanksgiving. I am thankful for the positive 
impact this organization has had on the lives of Chinese-Americans and 
Pittsburgh as a whole. Chinese-Americans have greatly contributed to 
the progress of Pittsburgh as well as the entire nation. I am very 
honored for this opportunity to wish them a very happy 4706.
  I ask my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in wishing the members of the Organization of Chinese-Americans 
a very happy and prosperous New Year.
