  Mr. COBLE. Mr. Speaker, with health care reform taking the 
congressional stage once again, I would like to recognize a constituent 
and friend of mine from the Sixth District of North Carolina, who will 
be a key player in the debate. We are proud to announce that a resident 
of the Sixth District was recently selected as the new president of the 
National Association of Health Underwriters (NAHU).
  Mr. Michael E. Matznick was sworn in as NAHU's president for the 
2000-2001 term by Alan Katz, the outgoing president. Michael has been a 
member of NAHU since 1980. He has served as president of the North 
Carolina state chapter of NAHU and received its distinguished service 
award. Michael joined NAHU's board as the vice president of the 
Southeast region in 1996.
  Michael is the president of Med/Flex Benefits Center, Inc., a firm 
founded in 1986 that specializes in individual and group health 
insurance, employee benefits plans and Section 125. He has a degree in 
business administration from Illinois State University, and lives in 
Greensboro, North Carolina, with his wife Carol and their two sons.
  On behalf of the citizens of the Sixth District of North Carolina, I 
would like to congratulate Michael Matznick for being selected for this 
national position. We wish him the best of luck
