                               S. Res. 94

       Whereas Alfonso C. Lenhardt (``Al'') was elected the 
     thirty-sixth Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper for the United 
     States Senate and began his service on September 4, 2001;
       Whereas Al served in the Senate during exceptional 
     circumstances, keeping the Senate community safe during the 
     most devastating terrorist attack on American soil and during 
     the largest bioterrorism attack in our Nation's history, and 
     enabling the business of democracy to continue;
       Whereas Al demonstrably improved the Senate's security and 
     ensured that the Senate will continue its operations in the 
     event of an emergency; and
       Whereas the Senate has been privileged to have the benefit 
     of Al's 32 years of service to the United States Army and his 
     quiet, steady professionalism during the historic 18 months 
     he has served this institution: Now, therefore, be it
       Resolved, That the Senate--
       (1) commends the extraordinary contributions of Alfonso C. 
     Lenhardt to the Senate and to his country;
       (2) expresses to him its deep appreciation for his faithful 
     and outstanding service; and
       (3) extends its very best wishes for his future endeavors.
       Sec. 2. The Secretary of the Senate shall transmit a copy 
     of this resolution to Alfonso C. Lenhardt.
