 15TH ANNUAL CONGRESSIONAL RENEWABLE ENERGY AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY EXPO 
                               AND FORUM

  (Mr. BARTLETT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BARTLETT. Madam Speaker, tomorrow is the 15th Annual 
Congressional Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency EXPO and Forum 
from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. in the Cannon Caucus Room as well as in 
Room 340 Cannon. It features more than 50 exhibitors, including six 
from Maryland; and it features 30 speakers, including Members of 
Congress, the executive branch, and the private sector.
  Come and learn the present status and near-term potential of how the 
cross-section of renewable energy--that is biofuels-biomass, 
geothermal, solar, water, wind--and energy efficiency technologies are 
creating jobs and meeting 11.7 percent of domestic U.S. energy 
production and 12.7 percent of net U.S. electrical generation.
  I encourage Members, staff and visitors to attend tomorrow's 15th 
Annual Congressional Renewable Energy and Energy Efficiency EXPO and 
Forum.
