# Remarks by the First Lady at the White House Opioids Summit

Transcript of speech First Lady Melania Trump delivered at the White House Opioids Summit in Washington, D.C., United States on March 1, 2018.
East Room
12:51 P.M. EST
MRS. TRUMP: Good afternoon. Thank you all for being here today. I want to be here to personally tell each of you that what I [you] do today, it matters.
Everyone in this room knows that our country is in the middle of the opioid crisis. And I’m so proud of the work that this administration has already done to combat this epidemic. We all know there is still much work to be done, which is why you’re all here today.
I know one panel will focus on the supply side of this crisis, and the other panel will focus on the prevention, treatment, and recovery. Our unified goal is that of helping all who have been affected by drug addiction. And, for me, that means focusing on babies and young mothers, which is something I have been often seeing in my travels.
I want to read some of a letter I received from a woman named Betty Henderson, a mother who lost her son to drugs. She wrote this letter to me just one month after her son passed away. Ms. Henderson is here with us today. Betty, please join me. (Applause.)
“Dear Mrs. Trump,
On September 22, 2017, a needle took the life of my 29-year-old son, Billy. The day after my son’s death, I had to go to the medical examiner’s office to claim his body. No mother should ever have to claim their child’s body. I’m sure that you as a mother would have some understanding of the depths of despair that I experienced on that day.
Mrs. Trump, I’m asking for your help in claiming these lost souls before drugs take them from this Earth. I pray that we give peace to families in knowing that they told their loved ones how much they are treasured.”
Betty, thank you for having the strength to reach out in the midst of your grief. Your story touched me, and I know it has now touched everyone in this room. Just as you said in your letter to me, let us all take a moment now and celebrate your son’s life. Thank you very much. (Applause.)
MS. HENDERSON: Thank you.
MRS. TRUMP: Let’s all keep Betty and her son, Billy, in mind today as you are working through some of the issues related to the opioid epidemic. Sadly, she is not alone in her grief, and we need to change that.
Thank you again for your hard work and commitment to this topic. You are all making a real difference, and I look forward to hearing the important action items that everyone will take away from today’s summit.
Thank you all. God bless you. And God bless the United States of America. Thank you. (Applause.)

# Remarks by the First Lady at the Governors' Spouses' Luncheon

Transcript of speech First Lady Melania Trump delivered to the Governors' Spouses' Luncheon in Washington, D.C., United States on February 26, 2018.
Blue Room
12:29 P.M. EST
MRS. TRUMP: Thank you. Good afternoon. It is wonderful to see all of you again.
The President and I enjoyed hosting everyone with the National Governors Association here at the White House last night. And I hope you all had a lovely evening.
This is the second time we have been able to spend time together at the spouses’ luncheon, and I’m honored to host you all today.
Before I begin, I want to be sure we take a moment to reflect on the horrific shooting in Florida. Our continued thoughts and prayers go out to all who were affected by such a senseless act. As a parent, I cannot imagine the kind of grief and tragedy like that brings.
And I hope, and I know, we all find ourselves wondering what we can do to help. In my year as First Lady, I have also learned that it’s oftentimes after a tragedy that you see the strength and resilience of the human spirit. I have been heartened to see children across this country using their voices to speak out and try to create change. They are our future, and they deserve a voice.
I know all of you are seeing this in your own states and territories, too. And I believe that if we all come together, we can start to effect positive change for our children and help prepare them for their futures.
As I have said before, it is important that, as adults, we take the lead and the responsibility in helping our children manage the many issues they are facing today. This means encouraging positive habits with social media and technology; even limiting time online and understanding the content they are exposed to on a daily basis.
This also means taking the time to teach them about the real dangers in drug abuse and addiction. This country is in the middle of an opioid crisis. Let’s use that grim reality as a tool to stop this epidemic.
Before you leave to go back to your wonderful states and territories, I’m asking you all to join me today and commit to promoting values such as encouragement, kindness, compassion, and respect in our children.
With those values as a solid foundation, our kids will be better equipped to deal with many of the evils in our world today, such as drug abuse and addiction and negative social media interactions.
In my role as First Lady, I want to nurture and protect the most valuable part of our society and our future: children. I hope you will join me today in my efforts and ask for your support. My office will be reaching out to many of you in the future, as we travel the country and work to promote and fight for the wellbeing of our children.
Thank you all for being here today, and thank you for all that you do for your home states and territories. God bless each of you and your families. And God bless the United States of America. (Applause.)

# Remarks in Recognition of the 30th Anniversary of CORA

Remarks in Recognition of the 30th Anniversary of CORA
HON. JACKIE SPEIER
OF CALIFORNIA IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Tuesday, June 10, 2008
Ms. SPEIER. Madam Speaker, this week, CORA--Community Overcoming Relationship Abuse--celebrates the thirtieth anniversary of comprehensive domestic violence support in San Mateo County.
Three decades ago, a victim of domestic violence on the San Francisco peninsula had no resources outside of hospitals and the police. Then in 1978, La Casa de San Mateo opened its doors to become the county's first and only emergency shelter for domestic violence survivors and their children. La Casa later changed its name to the Center for Domestic Violence Prevention and in 2003, partnered with Sor Juana Ines, the first toll-free domestic violence hotline in the county, to become CORA.
CORA's mission is to end domestic violence and abuse through intervention and prevention. The dedicated staff and volunteers respond to thousands of calls on the CORA hotline, and answer an equal number of requests for legal assistance each year. They serve more than 6,000 clients annually, providing legal, medical and mental health services, as well as counseling and safety in the county's only shelter for abuse victims and their children. This operation is overseen by the CORA governing board and a diverse staff of 35 who represent the vibrant cross-section of the county and region. Besides English and Spanish, CORA staff-members speak Tagalog, French, Mandarin, Italian, Korean, Hindi, and Farsi.
Madam Speaker, domestic violence is a silent epidemic. Every nine seconds, a woman in our country is abused by someone she knows. Millions of children witness acts of violence involving one or more parents every year. And one in five female high school students reports being physically or sexually abused by a dating partner.
Domestic violence impacts all of us. It is a significant drain on police and emergency resources and costs the national economy eight to ten billion dollars annually in medical bills, community support and lost wages and productivity. It is also a leading cause of homelessness and often leads to depression, substance abuse and--most troubling--an increased likelihood that victims and young witnesses will go on to become abusers themselves.
Madam Speaker, thanks to increased public awareness, domestic abuse is emerging from the shadows of shame and ignorance. Still, there are far too many instances of cruel and dehumanizing behavior within what should be the security of the family home. Because of this, society will always need an organization like CORA. My sincere hope is that, someday, we will need them less.

# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Lát

​A few miles south-west of Islâmpur is a small village named Lát, from a huge monolithic pillar now lying there half buried. This had been noticed by Dr. Buchanan, but he does not give any traditional account of it. The traditions of the place assert that it was being floated down to some place, when by some accident it was stranded here; and all subsequent attempts to float it down have proved abortive. Accounts differ as to where it was being carried, and tradition is totally silent as to where it came from; some say it was being carried to Telâda, others say Hilsa, and some even say it was being carried to Bihâr by the Subah. Wherever it may have been going, it is certain that it came from the south, and is not a remnant of the ancient grandeur of either the village of Lát, or of Islâmpur. Possibly it is part of the pillar at Bakror, of which another part is now in Gaya set up as a central mark in the city. It may possibly be even the Râjgir pillar which once stood near the tope (long since excavated), but of which hitherto no traces have been discovered; this, however, is very unlikely. (See J. A. S. for 1872, paper by Mr. Broadley.)
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Mangalpur and Bhimgarh

MANGALPUR.
At Mangalpur, about two miles west of Dubrâjpur, and nine miles south of Bakeswar or Tantipâra, is a tank known as Dántiwara,—so called, legend says, after the teeth of Parvati, of which one fell into it. Close to it, Khágra is said to have been so named after Khagâditya Muni.
BHIMGARH.
The road from Raniganj to Seuri crosses the Ajaya river near Bhimgarh. This is an old fort, with low earthen ramparts, now beaten by the weather into low gentle mounds. The place is attributed to the five Pândus, who, during their exile, are said to have stayed here some time. Some hollows in the vicinity,—the remains, no doubt, of old tanks,—are said to have been caused by the daily pouring out at those spots of the water from boiled rice, and the surplus ghi and sugarcane juice. A tank in the vicinity is named Sona Chál Dighi, and is said to have yielded gold, which the Pândus washed here: hence the name. The interior of the fort is now cultivated, and people say they occasionally come upon sál timber buried underground. I accept this statement as correct, and as an indication of the comparatively small age of the fort.
On the south banks of the river, opposite the fort, are a number of small, uninteresting temples, which are ascribed to the Pândus. The five brothers are said to have established five lingams there, which they worshipped; whence the name of the place Pánchpândeswar. Bhim, however, is said to have set up another lingam on the other side of the river, close to, and west of, the old fort: this is now known as ​Bhimeswar, and is enshrined in a small modern temple. All the temples in Pánchpândeswar are modern, and built of brick and stone, without any regularity. Older temples once existed here, but of these, except the materials, there are now no traces. Judging from these, I conclude they were small, plain shrines, somewhat of the style of the Baijnâth temples, and of no great antiquity.
A short distance south of the river Ajaya, and to the east of the road, is a large tank near a village, with the remains of a Muhammadan dargah and of a Hindu temple close to it: they are not very old, but are probably as old as the ruins at Pánchpândeswar.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Kherhi

KHERHI.
The hill at Kherhi, 10 miles south-west of Bhagalpur, contains numerous remains; these are to be found both on the hill and in the village below; in the latter, all that now remains are brickbats and low mounds. I saw three of these, but found nothing of interest; perhaps excavation will yield interesting remains. Numerous low mounds also occur at the foot of the hill, along the northern foot of which an old road appears once to have existed; there are also numerous low mounds further west; over most of these the plough has been driven for a long time, and their artificial character is inferred solely from the numerous fragments of brick which have been, and still are, constantly being turned up by the plough.
The principal existing object of interest is, however, the fort on the hill. This is an irregular enclosure, of rough large blocks of stone laid on each other without cement, occupying the whole of the tolerably level top of the eastmost hill, which, though only one of a long series of hills, is quite isolated, being connected with the western range by a low pass. The hill is saddle-backed, the highest portion being an elevated piece of table-land at the extreme west end; this portion was formed into a citadel opening into the fort by one gate and steps, and having a small postern opening outwards, but ​without any paved approach to it. The outer fort had two gates, each reached by a long, easy, paved approach; the easiest and largest is in about the middle of the south long wall; the other leads down from the peak at the east end; in both these ascents, as well as on numerous stones within the fort, and on the steps or paved approach leading from the fort to the citadel, are numerous detached inscriptions of one or two words, and almost all in the shell characters; some of these are evidently derived from the old Gupta characters, as the disguise of flourish is not in all cases sufficient to mask the characters. I found twenty-two of these curious detached records, among which one was clearly in old Gupta characters curiously flourished: in one of the inscriptions the word Dharmma occurs, but the mere occurrence of the single word Dharmma is not enough to justify its being considered Buddhist. The other remains on the hill consist of a remarkably large and fine well, very deep, built of brick, and evidently very old, a smaller one similar to it, and several lingams, both in the fort and in the citadel: there are no traces of any Buddhist statues or other Buddhist remains. The temples that enshrined the lingams were of stone and of brick, and have long ago disappeared entirely.
There are remains of extensive buildings in the citadel; but what they were it is impossible now to tell without extensive excavations; one was most probably a large Saivic temple.
Below the hill, near the pass to the west, is a stone known as Vagheswari Sthan; the stone is a large black slab; it is inscribed, the inscription consisting of four lines in mediæval characters; it opens with Swaste Pratâpa Râmânuya; the mention of Râmânuj fixes a superior limit to its age.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Lakhisarai and Rághogarh

LAKHISARAI, RÁGHOGARH AND BALGUDAR.
The group of villages, Rajjhâna, Rághogarh, Lakhisarai, Jaynagar, Birdaban, Hasanpur, and Nongarh, have already ​been described by General Cunningham, and I have little to add. At Rághogarh I dug at the site of the singularly beautiful pillar, and was rewarded by finding two bases—one perhaps in situ; these bases are quite plain and of granite; they are 10 inches deep; one is 2 feet square, the other 1 foot 7 inches square; they ran due east and west, and were 4 feet 12 inches clear space apart; the smaller one was, however, 1 foot higher than the other.

# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Mirápur Nâderâ

MIRÁPUR NÂDERÂ.
About 7 miles due east of the fort of the Phalgu at Jâru, at a village called Mirápur Nâderâ, are the ruins of Hindu temples converted or rather used up into masjids. The chief object of interest there is an old dargah, about half a mile east of the village. The dargah is ascribed to Syad Ahmad Shah, locally a very famous saint. In the dargah is a tree to which females for miles round come to the chillas with the object of obtaining children. The chilla consists of a small piece of the dress of the wearer which must be torn and tied to one of the branches of the tree; the woman tying the chilla must visit the spot quite alone and at night. The practice is common all over the Patna and Gaya districts, and so numerous are the holy spots which, when visited at night alone by females to tie chillas, are considered efficacious in procuring children, that one can hardly travel 15 miles in any direction without coming on one of them. Built into the dargah, among other Hindu materials, is a fine sculptured gargoyle serving as a drain outlet.
At the back of the village itself is a stone colonnade, the remains of a masjid consisting of three rows of pillars, six in each row, thus giving five openings. The pillars are plain; the building is now open on all sides, but there is no doubt of the existence once of the usual back wall with the mehrâb, making it a Muhammadan masjid. The root consists of stone slabs over which is laid a layer of bricks. The material of the pillars and slabs is granite; the bricks are of large size, over 12" long. The building stands on a mound, the length being north and south; at the south end a sculptured gargoyle representing a hooded snake forming a canopy over a human figure shows that the original building whose materials were used to construct the masjid was Buddhist. The floor of the building is now out of repair.
# Report of a Tour through the Bengal Provinces/Khelai Chandi

KHELAI CHANDI.
Six miles south of Pachet is a group of bare, rocky hills known as the Khelai Chandi hills; a fair is held here annually on the full moon of the month of Paush, and many people collect there; the object of worship there is a local goddess named Khelai Chandi Devi, who is supposed to live on the hills, but to be invisible; she is said to be eight-armed; at midnight she descends the hill, goes to the sacred tank, washes herself, and returns; hence nothing impure is thrown into it, nor do the people presume to bathe in it themselves; vows are made, and the suppliant vows to dig up with his hands (without any tools) a certain quantity of earth from the bed of the tank and carry it up beyond the tank embankment on his head, in case his (or her) wish is fulfilled; and on the mêla day thousands may be seen with tiny baskets scraping up mud from the bed of the tank and carrying it up the embankments; a small temple (modern) stands at the foot of the hill near the tank; it enshrines a white stone sculpture with hands folded in the attitude of prayer; two lions are sculptured on the pedestal; there is no inscription; the temple faces the hill; this statue is worshipped in place of the invisible goddess Khelai Chandi.

ALEXANDER RENNY, Esq. [Post-Captain of 1817.]
Was made commander, Oct. 13, 1807; and appointed to the Trinculo brig, Oct. 22, 1810.
On the 1st and 2d Oct. 1811, a court-martial was held, in Sheerness harbour, for the trial of Captain Renny, upon charges exhibited against him by Mr. John Hill, late first lieutenant of the Trinculo; viz. repeated drunkenness, and a flagrant breach of the 10th, 12th, and 13th articles of war. The following is a transcript of an attested copy of the sentence:
“he Court having heard the evidence produced in support of the charges, as well as what the prisoner had to offer in his defence, and having very maturely and deliberately weighed the whole and every part thereof, is of opinion that the charges are not proved; and does, therefore, most fully and most honorably acquit Alexander Renny, Esq. commander of H.M. sloop Trinculo, of all and every part thereof. And Alexander Renny, Esq. &c. is hereby most fully and most honorably acquitted of all and every part of the charges accordingly.
“The Court is at a loss for an expression sufficiently strong to mark the sense it feels of this prosecution, which has disclosed a scene of malice, perversion of facts,, and total insubordination, which cannot be too strongly deprecated.”
On the 18th and 19th of the same month, a Mr. Croke, ​late acting lieutenant of the Triuculo, was tried for contempt; for unofficer-like conduct to a centinel, while he himself was under arrest; for making use of improper language in the gun-room; and for being one of a combination against Captain Renny. The Court decided, that he was guilty of the first two charges alleged against him, but acquitted him of the latter: he was consequently adjudged to be incapable of receiving promotion for two years, and admonished to be more circumspect in his conduct for the future. In Feb. following, Lieutenant Cornelius Lascelles, likewise of the Trinculo, was tried in the some port, for a violation, of the 23d and 27th articles of war, and for conspiring against his commander. The whole of these charges being proved, he was sentenced to be dismissed from the naval service, and rendered incapable, for ever, of serving his Majesty.
Captain Renny obtained post rank, Jan. 1, 1817 ; and died at Paris, June 13, 1826.
