HONORING THE SERVICE OF CONGRESSMAN BILL YOUNG
(Mr. CLYBURN asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, one of the great pleasures that I have had
serving in this august body is the people with whom I have interacted
over the years, and one such person is Representative Bill Young.
Now, I know that we have a lot of issues to be discussing, and I will
be discussing them, but I wanted to take time out today to say how much
I appreciate serving with a gentleman whom I have gotten to know, love,
and respect. He has been in this body for over 42 years, and I have
spent my better than 20 years mostly serving on the Appropriations
Committee. It was a great pleasure serving with Bill Young.
Bill has said to reporters that he is a bit disappointed in the
current state of affairs. He says this is a different Congress. He is
right. It is going to be even more so without his great service.
