ms. norton. >> thank you, ladies and gentlemen. thank you mr. chairman for this hearing. my respect to the secret service goes back to when i was growing up as a child in the district of columbia and continues to this very day. but today we must ask. recent events call for and recent unprecedented events call for an unprecedented response. first, an increasing number of white house jumpers, including the most recent this month who was able to get get deep into the interyr of the white house. before that, in 2011, multiple shots into the living quarters of the first family discovered only four days later not by secret service investigation but by white house staff. beyond these failures in the core mission of the secret service to protect the white house and the first family is an unsettling pafailure to disclos perhaps even understand what has occurred. or to promptly investigate. together this combination of failures suggests strongly that the time is right for a 21st century makeover of the secret service. i do not regard this matter as a mere question of personnel. i b

ms. eleanor holmes norton. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlewoman from the district of columbia is recognized for two minutes. ms. norton: thank you, mr. speaker. i appreciate what has gone into the amendment before us. i perhaps should be more involved than most reasons because my district, the nation's capital, is a perpetual high-level target of terrorist, like isil. today i'm compelled to come to the floor to convey the indignation of the residents of the district of columbia, that the congress would even approach another period of war where participation of residents of the district of columbia is virtually they have no le vote on this preeminent matter of war and peace, district residents pay $12,000 per capita, more in federal taxes than residents of any other state to support our government in war and peace. regardless of what is decided on this amendment, mr. speaker, district residents will be there for america as they have been during every war our country has fought. the nation, however, should no

ms. norton: i can't say enough how much this congress will miss him and how indebted we are. ou have extended my time. i'd like to say some closing words about this congress. i have spent most of my time in the congress and in the minority with my good friends . the other side in control , even say that this is for those congresses, a most nusual 113th congress. this is a shameful way this package of bills to close this congress. usually this is a time or certainly i have seen it under republican congresses when you made room for must-pass bills. certainly not for never-to-pass bills. sure-to-be-veto this was certainly not the time to make up for running through the 113th congress with neither an agenda or legislation to show for it, to show that we were entitled to be paid for being here for two years. instead of some must-pass bills -- and i'll suggest a few -- what we have heard from my good friends on the other side are some tax and other giveaway bills that add to the deficit stamped that should be special interest. there was legislation before us that with small changes

ms. norton, is recognized for 0 minutes as the designee of the minority leader. -- 60 minutes as the designeethe minority leader. mr. speaker, i come o the floor today as the house has adjourned because on monday a very important hearing, the rst of its kind in two decades, a hearing on statehood for the district of columbia, will take place in the senate of the united states. the hearing is called by senator carper, the chair of the jurisdictional committee. at a earing takes place time and in a season when we have seen unusual progress for statehood for the district of columbia. and the senate, the majority leader himself became a co-sponsor of the bill, indeed announced it with great excitement, very unusual because the majority leader of the senate co-sponsors very few bills. the top leadership of the senate are sponsors of the bill. the bill has more house and senate sponsors than it has ever had. that's what we call momentum, mr. speaker. it's not because we haven't tried to get a senate hearing or because a senate or house hearing on statehood was what was on the agenda for the immedia
