CONGRATULATING BAKER ELMORE
(Mr. WILSON of South Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WILSON of South Carolina. Mr. Speaker, it is with sincere
gratitude I have the opportunity to recognize Baker Elmore, legislative
director of South Carolina's Second Congressional District. I will
always appreciate Baker for his service on behalf of the people of
South Carolina.
A native of Cheraw, South Carolina, and formerly of the award-winning
USC golf team, Baker has faithfully served on the staff for 6 years in
various roles, including legislative director, legislative assistant,
and special assistant. His expertise on nuclear energy, trade, and
foreign affairs, combined with his ability to connect with constituents
and eagerness to assist them, has made a difference, especially
promoting the missions of the Savannah River site.
It is with mixed feelings, but great happiness, that I bid Baker
farewell. Baker is moving on next week to serve as director of Federal
programs at the Nuclear Energy Institute, NEI. This is a tremendous
vote of confidence in his capability, his competence, dedication, and
integrity.
Congratulations to his parents, Mike and Debbie Elmore, along with
his grandparents, Sam and Gina McCuen and Harriet Elmore, for raising
such a talented staff member.
In conclusion, God bless our troops, and may the President by his
actions never forget September the 11th in the global war on terrorism.
Godspeed, Baker Elmore.
