                         GOVERNOR BILL JANKLOW

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. KRISTI L. NOEM

                            of south dakota

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 18, 2012

  Mrs. NOEM. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize the passing of 
Governor Bill Janklow, who served the state of South Dakota with great 
dedication and resolve. His persistence and ambition to achieve great 
things for South Dakota were truly one of a kind. My family's thoughts 
and prayers go out to Mary Dean and the rest of Governor Janklow's 
family during this difficult time. He was a passionate advocate for our 
State and will be missed.
  Because I will be attending his funeral service today, I will not be 
present for the vote on H.J. Res. 98, which states the disapproval of 
the President's exercise of authority to increase the debt limit. If 
present, I would have voted ``yes'' in favor of the resolution.
