[Mr.] Speaker… we have only seven legislative days left until another unnecessary, costly, and entirely preventable government shutdown.

Today, Mr. Speaker, as we mourn the victims of the September 11 attacks and pay tribute to the heroes of that day, we should honor them by renewing the sense of unity we felt that morning and in the weeks and months that followed.
