mr. horsford: mr. speaker, if i can just close by saying, if we want the next generation of students to live the american dream and achieve the success they're capable of, we must challenge the growing trend of inequality in our schools throughout america. that was the eventual dream that emerged from the brown decision and so far we have fallen short of a fair and equal school system that gives each student their best chance to succeed. i yield my time back, thank you for recognizing this special order hour on this the 60th anniversary of the brown decision. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman's time has expired. under the speaker's announced policy of january 3, 2013, the gentleman from texas, mr. gohmert, is recognized for 60 minutes as the designee of the majority leader. r. gohmert: mr. gohmert: thank you, mr. speaker. tonight i wanted to discuss issues regarding the patriot act and as i understand it, we will be taking up a vote come thursday on what's called the u.s.a. freedom act, i believe.
