  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, it is my honor to rise and pay tribute to a 
remarkable man from my district. Bud Romberg has dedicated many years 
of his life to the betterment of the community of Steamboat, Colorado 
and it is my honor to pay tribute to him before this body of Congress 
and our nation.
   Bud is a retired schoolteacher who has held a seat on the Steamboat 
Springs School Board for 18 years. He also serves on the City Planning 
Commission and just completed a four-year term of service on the 
Steamboat City Council. As a Councilman, Bud's tenure was defined by 
his honesty and integrity. Bud had no use for political double-speak or 
bureaucracy and approached his position in a straightforward and direct 
manner.
   During Bud's tenure, he played a direct role in assuring that 
Steamboat maintained its small town charm, and family atmosphere. He 
was also instrumental in helping to form strong working relationships 
between the City of Steamboat and government agencies throughout 
Colorado.
   Mr. Speaker it is my privilege to pay tribute to Bud Romberg before 
this body of Congress and our nation. Bud is a man of great honor and 
integrity and the community of Steamboat Springs is a better place as 
the result of his dedicated service. Thank you for your service, Bud.
