Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join the nation in mourning the loss of Sergeant Benjamin N. Pennington, assigned to the 1st Battalion, 1st Space Brigade in my district at Fort Carson in Colorado Springs. A Kentucky native, Benjamin had the drive to serve instilled in him from a young age. Even as a kid, he knew he wanted to be an American soldier. Here beside me is one of his drawings he made in kindergarten where he wrote: "I love America because I want to fight for my country," at 5 years old.

Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor and celebrate thirty years of ministry and community impact of Springs Rescue Mission in Colorado Springs, Colorado. Springs Rescue Mission has become a pillar of the Pike's Peak region, not only by caring for the homeless but as a model of local business, government, healthcare, and faith-based collaboration, for the good of the community. In a short thirty years, Springs Rescue Mission has become an expansive homeless resource campus—a Community of Hope for the most vulnerable men and women of Colorado Springs.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 67 lives that were lost on the tragic flight last year on American Airlines Flight 5342. Amongst the 67 lives lost, 28 of them were members of the U.S. Figure skating community, many of them calling my district of Colorado Springs their training ground. These skaters were some of the brightest in their sport, returning from the U.S. Championships and National Development Team Camp in Wichita, Kansas.

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a true gem of the Colorado Springs region, the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb, otherwise known around the world as the Race to the Clouds. Founded by entrepreneur and philanthropist Spencer Penrose over 100 years ago, it has grown exponentially since its beginning. Being the second-oldest auto race in America and one of the most iconic motorsports events, many racing legends have pushed the limits of their automobiles to take on the hill climb.

Mr. Speaker, America often faces difficult moments and difficult choices. Presidents are no different. They oftentimes have to face difficult decisions, and I hope that Members of this body will think about their vote as they decide whether to support the President in this effort or not and apply the same standard. I have always thought to try and apply the same standard, whether the President belongs to the Republican Party or the Democratic Party, apply the same standard. I rise today in support of President Trump's action against Iran.
