         MOMENT OF SILENCE REMEMBERING VICTIMS OF GUN VIOLENCE

  (Mrs. McBATH asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mrs. McBATH. Madam Speaker, I rise on this first legislative day of 
June to commemorate Gun Violence Awareness Month and to remember the 12 
lives that were tragically cut short in Friday's mass shooting in 
Virginia Beach.
  This month, we will be taking action and bringing attention to 
commonsense solutions to save the nearly 100 lives taken every day by 
tragic acts of gun violence.
  At this time, I ask my colleagues to please join me in this moment of 
silence for all those who have been lost.
