Resolution honoring slain Giffords staffer approved by House

The House on Thursday evening approved a bipartisan resolution that names room HVC 215 of the Capitol Visitor Center after Gabe Zimmerman, the House staffer slain in the attack that almost took the life of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.).

Members approved the resolution, H.Res. 364, by a unanimous 419-0 vote.
