  UNITED STATES CAPITOL HISTORICAL SOCIETY RECOGNIZES PATRICK McHENRY

  (Ms. Foxx of North Carolina was recognized to address the House for 5 
minutes.)
  Ms. FOXX. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize a dear friend and former 
colleague, Patrick McHenry.
  This week, the United States Capitol Historical Society is 
recognizing Patrick as a recipient of the Freedom Award.
  The award serves to recognize and honor individuals and organizations 
that have advanced greater public understanding and appreciation for 
freedom as represented by the U.S. Capitol and Congress.
  Madam Speaker, there is no question in my mind that Patrick McHenry 
deserves this award and continued praise for his service to the Nation 
and to North Carolina.
  I congratulate Patrick on this recognition for his patriotism, for 
being a wonderful role model, and for his overall service to the 
Nation.
  May God continue to bless Patrick, and may He continue to bless his 
wonderful family.
