CONGRESSMAN JOHN DINGELL'S LAST VOTE IN THE HOUSE
(Mr. HOYER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. HOYER. Mr. Speaker, we have one more vote. That will be the last
time that the gentleman from Michigan, John Dingell, votes in this
House after 59 years. He is a great servant of our country.
I am pleased to yield to the gentleman from Ohio, Speaker Boehner.
Mr. BOEHNER. I thank my colleague for yielding.
Let me add my words of congratulations to our good friend from
Michigan, John Dingell, who has been a mentor to Members on both sides
of the aisle and has carried more institutional history than anyone
here. My job tonight is to say thank you and merry Christmas.
