           THE RETIREMENT OF SENATOR DENNIS DECONCINI (D-AZ)

  Mr. THURMOND. Mr. President, I rise today to pay tribute to a fellow 
member of this body. Dennis DeConcini, who will retire from the U.S. 
Senate at the end of this Congress.
  A native of Tucson, AZ, Dennis established an impressive record of 
public service prior to his election to the Senate in 1976. His 
background includes a stint in the U.S. Army and Army Reserve; serving 
on the staff of the Governor; and, being elected Pima County attorney. 
Such experience has served Dennis well in the Senate, particularly in 
his roles as a member of the Judiciary and Intelligence Committees, 
where he has done a fine job.
  Mr. President, it has been a pleasure for me to serve with Senator 
DeConcini a man of integrity, ability, and dedication for almost two 
decades, and we will all miss him. I wish Dennis good health, 
happiness, and success in all his future undertakings.
