  Mr. AL GREEN of Texas. Mr. Speaker, I would like to acknowledge the 
appointment of Mr. Dean Corgey to the Port of Houston Authority 
Commission, on January 16, 2013. Mr. Corgey is well-suited to the 
position of Port Commissioner, based on his decades of community 
service, outstanding leadership, and stellar credentials.
  Mr. Corgey is a humble man who has worked in various capacities on 
all four coasts, before he became vice president of the preeminent 
Seafarers International Union's Gulf Coast Region and now a Port 
Commissioner. I know he will use his numerous talents to ensure the 
Port of Houston remains a world-class port.
  Mr. Speaker, I am blessed to have the opportunity to pay tribute to a 
dear friend of over ten years. A man of character who can be an 
extraordinary agent for change. Mr. Corgey is an indefatigable and 
hardworking individual, who will continue to serve the city of Houston 
well.
