Mr. SHUSTER, from the Committee on Transportation and

REPORT
[To accompany H. Con. Res. 67]
[Including cost estimate of the Congressional Budget Office]
The Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure, to whom
was referred the concurrent resolution (H. Con. Res. 67) authoriz-
ing the 1997 Special Olympics Torch Relay to be run through the
Capitol Grounds, having considered the same, report favorably
thereon without amendment and recommend that the concurrent
resolution be agreed to.
House Concurrent Resolution 67 would authorize the use of the
Capitol Grounds for the 1997 Special Olympics Torch Relay, sched-
uled for Friday, June 13, 1997. The resolution authorizes the Archi-
tect of the Capitol and the Capitol Police Board to take such ac-
tions and prescribe such conditions as necessary for carrying out
the event in complete compliance with rules and regulations gov-
erning the use of the Capitol Grounds.
The run through the Capitol Grounds is part of the journey of
the Special Olympics torch through the District of Columbia to
open the Special Olympics summer games at Gallaudet University
in the District of Columbia. Each year, over 60 local and Federal
law enforcement agencies in Washington, D.C. participate in this
annual event to show their support of the Special Olympics. The
activities will begin on Capitol Hill where the United States Cap-
itol Police will host the opening ceremonies for the torch run.
COMPLIANCE WITH RULE XI
With respect to the requirements of clause 2(l)(3) of rule XI of
the Rules of the House of Representatives:
(1) The Committee did not hold hearings on the legislation.
