Mr. ROSS. Madam Speaker, I rise to 

make a good-news announcement. 

I’m joined today by the Arkansas 

congressional delegation, minus one, 

and the one that’s not with us today is 

Congressman VIC SNYDER from Little 

Rock. And the reason he is not is we 

are pleased to announce that yesterday 

morning, VIC and his wife, Betsy, and 

their son, Penn, were pleased to welcome into this world newborn triplets. 

The three-member Snyder family has 

now grown by three, and they welcome 

Aubrey at 3 pounds, 15 ounces; Wyatt 

at 4 pounds, 10 ounces; and Sullivan at 

4 pounds, 15 ounces. They are all doing 

well, and they expect to remain in the 

hospital for about 3 weeks. 

Please keep VIC, Betsy and Penn in 

your hearts and prayers.
