  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an amazing feat 
accomplished by one of my constituents, Mr. Claude Matthews.
  Mr. Claude Matthews of Palisade, CO was recently recognized for his 
contribution to highway, safety. Mr. Matthews, an employee of Roadway 
Express, Inc., as a commercial truck driver, was commended for driving 
2 million miles without a preventable accident. This performance is a 
tribute to Mr. Matthews' professional approach to driving and 
dedication to safety. This achievement is a milestone attained only by 
a select few professional drivers.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that all our colleagues join me in congratulating 
Mr. Matthews' for a job well done. He has proven to be an outstanding 
professional driver and an important member of our Nation's vital 
trucking industry.
