  (Mr. HOYER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, we have one more vote. That will be the last 
time that the gentleman from Michigan, John Dingell, votes in this 
House after 59 years. He is a great servant of our country.

  Mr. BOEHNER. I thank my colleague for yielding.
  Let me add my words of congratulations to our good friend from 
Michigan,

John Dingell, who has been a mentor to Members on both sides of the 
aisle and has carried more institutional history than anyone here. My 
job tonight is to say thank you and merry Christmas.
