                      HONORING THE CLOONEY FAMILY

  (Mr. AL GREEN of Texas asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. AL GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to give a great 
expression of gratitude to the Clooney family. Mr. George Clooney and 
his father, Nick, were among the many who were arrested on Friday, 
March 16, protesting over at the Sudanese Embassy. I am saluting them, 
and am grateful to them because not only of what they did that day but 
of what Mr. Clooney did when he went into Sudan, at some considerable 
risk I might add, to secure evidence of what was taking place there and 
what is taking place.
  Those who would like to see some of the evidence can go to 
www.enoughproject.org. You can actually see the video.
  I believe what he and those others who were arrested have done merits 
having a flag flown over the Capitol. We will fly a flag over the 
Capitol in honor of those who participated in the protest movement.
