Before I announce our schedule for the day, let me just note a couple of historical facts about this date, April 21st, in history. For instance, Mr. Speaker, colleagues, you might find interesting that on this day in 1789, one of our nation's Founding Fathers, John Adams, was sworn in at New York City's Federal Hall as our nation's first Vice President. After serving two terms, Mr. Adams went on to serve as the second President of the United States and continued to contribute to our nation's history as a statesman. On this date in 1965, the New York City World's Fair opened in New York for its second and final season.
