     distinction and commitment as a U.S. Senator from the State 
     of West Virginia since January 3, 1959;
       Whereas, he has dutifully and faithfully served the Senate

     six years as the Senate Minority Leader (1981-1986);
       Whereas, his dedicated service as a U.S. Senator has 
     contributed to the effectiveness and betterment of this

       Resolved, That the U.S. Senate congratulates the Honorable
