                       SUPPORT CLEAN ENERGY WEEK

  (Mr. CURTIS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CURTIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of Clean Energy 
Week, an opportunity to celebrate bipartisan support for a wide variety 
of clean energy sources strengthening America's national security while 
also preserving our environment for future generations.
  Environmental stewardship doesn't have to mean making economic 
sacrifices. Clean energy solutions and jobs are the future for the 
United States, with clean energy powering more homes and businesses 
than ever before.
  The environment is, and should be, a bipartisan issue. That is why, 
this week, I am proud, with my friend Congressman Lowenthal from 
California, to offer a resolution in support of congressionally 
supporting the designation of Clean Energy Week.
  I am proud that our effort has already gathered dozens of our 
colleagues, bipartisan, on both sides of the aisle. This goes to show 
that we can work across the aisle to be better stewards of this Earth. 
I plan to continue pursuit of these positive bipartisan solutions in 
the future.
