  Mr. BERG. Mr. Speaker, due to emergency flooding in my home state of 
North Dakota, I will be unavoidably detained for the remainder of the 
week (Beginning at 4 p.m. on Thursday, June 23). I ask that everyone 
please join me in keeping these residents who are fighting for their 
homes and their communities in your thoughts and prayers, and to stand 
with Minot and other communities up and down the Souris River to ensure 
a strong recovery.
