WELCOME TO TYLER ADAM GORSUCH
(Mr. CRAPO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CRAPO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to welcome a new Member to the
Crapo organization, Tyler Adam Gorsuch, the adopted son of my
administrative assistant Jane Gorsuch and her husband, George. Jane has
been with me since I was first sworn into Congress in 1993, and Tyler
is their first child.
Tyler arrived in the United States from Seoul, South Korea, on
September 4, and now he is 7 months old, happy, and healthy. Tyler is
already busy supporting our majority party. He has indicated as only a
child can his total support for the family friendly practices in our
office, and he is also politically active, as he has volunteered to
assist me in my next election. He came to visit my office last week and
provided the day's entertainment to my staff. During his second visit
to our office he provided invaluable advice to me on the political
outlook for my home State of Idaho.
As a father of five children, I understand firsthand the joys of
parenthood. My wife Susan and I enjoy watching our children grow
through each stage of development, and I know that Jane and George will
love and enjoy Tyler just as much.
Congratulations to Jane and George, and best of luck to them as they
embark on the most fantastic journey of their lives, parenthood.
