E | Congressional Record, Volume 140 Issue 146 (Saturday, October 8, 1994) [Congressional Record Volume 140, Number 146 (Saturday, October 8, 1994)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Printing Office [www.gpo.gov] [Congressional Record: October 8, 1994] From the Congressional Record Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] TRIBUTE TO REPRESENTATIVE HELEN BENTLEY ______ HON. ROMANO L. MAZZOLI of kentucky in the house of representatives Friday, October 7, 1994 Mr. MAZZOLI. Mr. Speaker, I would like to join my fellow colleagues in honoring Representative Helen Bentley. As a ``retiree'' myself, Helen and I are experiencing the same happy- sad reaction to the end of the session and to the end of our careers as Members of Congress. Although I have been here for a few years longer than Helen, the effects of leaving will be the same for both of us. Helen Bentley has served the great people of Maryland's Second Congressional District with devotion and integrity. She has been a tireless voice for the maritime and shipping industries of Maryland. As Chairman of the Federal Maritime Commission, Helen led the way to increasing the U.S. merchant marine fleet and expanding the port of Baltimore. She has continued her dedication to maritime issues through her work on the House Committee on Merchant Marine and Fisheries. Helen Bentley has also championed efforts to reduce U.S. dependability of foreign goods through aggressive ``Buy American'' campaigns, sponsoring legislation requiring the federal government to purchase goods from U.S. companies. As we both start this new phase of life away from Congress, I wish for Helen all the happiness life has to offer. ____________________ |
