                          BRING BACK OUR GIRLS

  (Ms. WILSON of Florida asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Ms. WILSON of Florida. Mr. Speaker, Boko Haram, with the help of 
ISIS, has made a dangerous comeback. Just yesterday, Boko Haram 
attacked again, using a suicide bomber to kill 20 more people.
  In his inauguration speech last Friday, President Buhari vowed to 
defeat Boko Haram. I hope and pray that President Buhari remains 
committed to this vow because we here in Congress will certainly remain 
committed to holding him accountable.
  Mr. Speaker, we will continue to wear red in solidarity with the 
thousands affected by the evils of Boko Haram. We will continue to 
tweet, tweet, tweet #bringbackourgirls.
  Listen to these headlines: ``Kidnapped Nigerian Girls Likely Being 
Used by Boko Haram as Suicide Bombers''; ``U.S. Signals Willingness to 
Widen the Role in Fighting Boko Haram in Nigeria''; ``Boko Haram and 
ISIS Are the Worst Sexual Abusers''; ``How Boko Haram Is Turning 
Children into Weapons''; ``With Help from ISIS, a More Deadly Boko 
Haram Makes a Comeback''; ``Nigerian Girls Kidnapped by Boko Haram May 
Be Held in Underground Bunkers''; ``Boko Haram Militants Raped Hundreds 
of Female Captives in Nigeria.''
  Continue to tweet. Tweet #bringbackourgirls.
