                          PASSAGE OF FARM BILL

  Mr. CASEY. Mr. President, with the passage of the farm bill, I want 
to commend the work of my legislative staff led by Kasey Gillette our 
senior legislative assistant. Kasey did an excellent job on both 
substance and strategy always focusing on how the bill would impact 
farm families and the agricultural economy of Pennsylvania. Kasey had 
two great teammates: Caryn Long and Alex Davis, who labored for months 
on very complex matters in the bill. Without the work of Kasey, Caryn, 
and Alex, I wouldn't have been able to have four amendments adopted 
during the floor debate and five others adopted during the committee 
markup.
