The @OHSupremeCourt building has a grand foyer featuring bronze reliefs of Ohioans who served as US president, US Supreme Court justice, or Speaker of the US House. Today at 3:30pm EST the Court adds a new relief for the first time in nearly a century, honoring @SpeakerBoehner.
“Appropriate attire and appearance will depend on the duties performed, the work environment, and the level of interaction with foreign interlocutors and other external stakeholders,” the manual added.
Officials representing the United States must dress in business formal attire with a “polished and professional” personal appearance while participating in meetings or other official engagements.

A giant in college football and an even greater man, Coach Lou Holtz leaves behind an inspired legacy that has shaped the lives of generations and his joy garnered millions of fans. His was a life well lived, and I was lucky to call him a friend. Rest in peace, Lou.
Saddened to learn of @RepLaMalfa's passing. Grateful for the time we served together and for all he did for CA-01 and our country. My deepest condolences are with his family.
Statement by President George W. Bush on Former Education Secretary Rod Paige:
"Laura and I are saddened by the passing of former Secretary of Education Rod Paige. Rod was a leader and a friend. Unsatisfied with the status quo, he challenged what we called 'the soft bigotry of low expectations.' Rod worked hard to make sure that where a child was born didn’t determine whether they could succeed in school and beyond. He devoted his life to America’s young people and made a difference. His wife Stephanie was a strong partner in that mission, and Laura and I send her and the Paige family our heartfelt sympathies."
Somewhere east of Glacier National Park, @SpeakerBoehner crossed the 10,500-mile mark of driving. From Cincy to Montana to Calgary and up to Anchorage.

What an adventure. … Link ….

When I first ran for the US House my Dem opponent was the mayor of Hamilton, OH. George Wendt was his brother-in-law. George went on a late night TV show and said some tough things about his bro in-laws's opponent, confusing me with someone else. He called later to apologize and we had a great conversation. Raising a glass tonight to the man America will always remember as Norm.

When Pope Francis became the first pope to address a Joint Meeting of the US Congress, it was a big deal. This is seismic. May God Bless Pope Leo XIV, and through him, bring His light to the world.
"Speaker, will you pray for me?" With those words, Pope Francis changed my life. He will forever hold a place in America's history as the first Pope to address a joint meeting of the US Congress, and in hearts across the world for his compassionate stewardship of the Church.
The event took place in the Mansfield Room of the U.S. Capitol last Wednesday. This is a full circle moment for Acaden, as he has personally benefited from the program as a scholarship recipient when he was a rising 9th grader.
