                         HON. THOMAS M. BARRETT

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 14, 1995

  Mr. BARRETT of Wisconsin. Mr. Speaker, today I congratulate Martin 
``Marty'' F. Stein, winner of the 1995 Human Relations Award presented 
by the Milwaukee Chapter of the American Jewish Committee. The award is 
given annually to recognize individuals who through their skills, 
influence, and dedication, have demonstrated their unwavering 
commitment to preserving our democratic heritage.
  Marty Stein is recognized for his profound commitment to humanitarian 
endeavors that have improved the lives of many Milwaukeeans. As 
president of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Milwaukee from 1993-95 
and as chairman of the executive's council and fundraising committee 
for the task force on battered women and children, Marty Stein has 
passionately mobilized resources for those less fortunate.
  Marty Stein's civic and philanthropic activities have touched the 
lives of people throughout the world. He founded the Citizen Democracy 
Corps Business Entrepreneur Program, a Washington DC, group that 
provides business mentoring in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet 
Union. In 1984, Marty Stein led the Operation Moses campaign which 
rescued Ethiopian Jews and brought them to Israel. Deeply committed to 
his Jewish faith, Marty weaves the Jewish values of community, family, 
and respect into his efforts to help others.
  Whether in his local community, State, national, or international 
endeavors, Marty Stein's benevolence has made a positive difference. 
The worthwhile projects he leads are noble and the results are widely 
admired. Marty's wife, Barbara, who has many charitable accomplishments 
of her own, has supported Marty's activities throughout their 37-year 
marriage. I am proud to join the American Jewish Committee in 
congratulating Marty Stein as the 1995 Human Relations Award winner.
