TODD TIAHRT\n\n                               of kansas\n\n                    in the house of representatives\n\n                      Wednesday, December 6, 2006\n\n  Mr. TIAHRT. Mr. Speaker of the many friends and colleagues, who will\nnot be returning for the 110th Congress, I am especially disappointed\nthat my fellow Kansan Jim Ryun is one of them.\n  It was at an event in Wichita, where I first encouraged Jim to run\nfor Congress. Most Kansans knew Jim as the world record holder in the\nmile run and as an American Olympic hero. I knew him as a loving father\nand family man and someone who cares deeply about his country.\n  Jim Ryun won a hard fought battle in 1996 and served honorably in\nthis House for five terms. He was an effective legislator and tough\nadvocate for the constituents of the Second District of Kansas. You\nonly need to look as far as Fort Riley and Fort Leavenworth to see the\nresults of Congressman Ryun's efforts. They not only survived the BRAC\nprocess, both installations have expanded missions and are well\npositioned for the future.\n  Jim Ryun not only stood strong for the men and women of the military,\nhe has been a tireless fighter for the issues that are of greatest\nimportance to his constituents. Jim Ryun is a budget hawk, defender of\nlife and someone on whom you can always rely. He is a man of integrity\nand has already left an indelible mark on Kansas, our country and the\nworld. He will be sorely missed.\n\n                          ____________________"]], "columns": ["granule_id", "date", "congress", "session", "volume", "issue", "title", "chamber", "granule_class", "sub_granule_class", "page_start", "page_end", "speakers", "bills", "citation", "full_text"], "primary_keys": ["granule_id"], "primary_key_values": ["CREC-2006-12-08-pt1-PgE2139-3"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 18.196274992078543, "source": "Federal Register API & Regulations.gov API", "source_url": "https://www.federalregister.gov/developers/api/v1", "license": "Public Domain (U.S. Government data)", "license_url": "https://www.regulations.gov/faq"}
