              RETIREMENT OF CONGRESSMAN ROMANO L. MAZZOLI

                                 ______


                            HON. JACK BROOKS

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, October 7, 1994

  Mr. BROOKS, Mr. Speaker, I rise today to speak of another colleague 
of mine on the House Committee on the Judiciary who has decided to 
retire from public service at the end of this session. Congressman 
Romano L. Mazzoli of Kentucky's Third Congressional District has served 
with distinction in the Congress since 1971 and on the Judiciary 
Committee since 1975. Ron is a diligent and hard-working Member of both 
the Judiciary Committee and this House whose careful attention to 
detail will be sorely missed by all of us.
  As chairman of the Subcommittee on International Law, Immigration, 
and Refugees, Ron Mazzoli has been in the vanguard of all immigration 
legislation which has passed the Congress in the past 20 years. He has 
tried to balance both the rights of those legally seeking to become 
citizens of this country with the very important need to safeguard our 
borders. Our fond thoughts and best wishes go with Helen and Ron as 
they return to Louisville for, I am sure, a productive career and life 
outside the Congress.
