i say thank you for congressman john lewis and congressman sam johnson. ifs of -- as i was listening to you, i thought about so many of the things that congressman john lewis has said to us, not only on this floor, not only in private moments, but in our congressional black caucus meetings. he represents that sense of history, of why we come to continue our work. why we come to continue to stand up for the voting rights. because he has said to us on numerous occasions, mr. speaker, that the vote is the most powerful, the most powerful and most nonviolence tool that we have in a democratic society. we must not allow the power of the vote to be neutralized. we must never go back. so thank you, congressman larson, for taking us forward. a taking us on march 15 on journey that we will remember for a lifetime. because you see, we stand on the shoulders of those individuals who came before us. and now our voters stand on our shoulders. our voters, mr. speaker, are wanting us, they are thirsty for us to stand up for them so that their vote counts. at this time,

to sam johnson, mr. speaker, when i think about the meaning behind this memorial, i think about an individual who lives in my district. his first name is donald, but we call him digger. digger odell was shot down in october of 1967 and he, like sam, was a prisoner in the hanoi hilton. in digger's case for 5 1/2 years. thankfully, digger made it home, as sam did, and after all of those years in the north vietnamese camp, he's now in his 80's and serve as our committee council and he chairs a fundraising effort for the special olympics. digger is remarkable man. he's one of many who selflessly served our nation facing enormous adversity. i might mention my husband, a fighter pilot, a proud member of chapter 154 of the v.b.a. in mccomb county, which one of the largest chapters in our nation. again, mr. speaker, these heroes, who bravely served our nation, deserve to be honored, especially in the u.s. capitol, and certainly with this chair -- pow-mia logo on it. we will never forget. i reserve the balance of
