     containing, and ultimately ending the threat to Members of 
     Congress, their staff, and others during the shooting at 
     Eugene Simpson Stadium Park in Alexandria, Virginia, on the 
     morning of June 14, 2017;
       (2) recognizes the Police Department, the Office of the 
     Sheriff, and the Fire Department of Alexandria, Virginia, who 
     reported to the scene without hesitation, and the first 
     responders who treated the wounded;
       (3) recognizes the additional victims who survived the 
     shooting and supports their continued recovery from physical 
     and psychological wounds, including--
       (A) Steve Scalise, the Majority Whip of the House of 
     Representatives;
       (B) Zachary Barth, a staffer for Representative Roger

       (4) offers sympathy and support to the families and friends

       (6) recognizes the United States Capitol Police--
       (A) who protect Members of Congress and employees, 
     visitors, and facilities of Congress; and
       (B) whose professionalism, vigilance, and self-sacrifice is 
     a daily example of the steadfast patriotism that civil 
     servants should strive for in service to one another and to 
     the United States.
