Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 82 (Thursday, May 14, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 82 (Thursday, May 14, 2026)] [House] [Page H3510] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] BACK THE BLUE (Mr. BEAN of Florida asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)

It takes courage to wear a badge. It takes even more courage to respond to an emergency, to step in harm's way, or to confront danger. But for our police, it is just part of the job. Today, I want to say two words our officers do not hear nearly enough: Thank you. Thank you for protecting our businesses, our communities. Thank you for protecting our families and each of us. Thank you for upholding the law. I will always back the blue, Mr. Speaker. ____________________
