                     REMEMBERING DOMENIC D'AMBROSIO

  (Mr. MOULTON asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. MOULTON. Mr. Speaker, today I come to the floor of the House with 
a heavy heart. This past weekend, the city of Lynn lost a dedicated 
public servant, a tireless local volunteer, and an inspiring advocate 
for the people of our community. Domenic D'Ambrosio, known by many as 
Dom, was loved by many for his uncanny ability to connect with people. 
Whether they were old friends or someone he was meeting for the first 
time, Dom's compassion for others was contagious, encouraging all of us 
to be better members of our community.
  At a time when public opinion of Congress is at an all-time low, 
Dom's belief in this institution and the power of the democratic 
process could not have been stronger. I thank him for bringing a 
reinvigorating energy to our Nation's political dialogue and for 
reminding us why we are so fortunate to have a free and democratic 
government, and why we should all take part in making it better.
  My thoughts and prayers are with his wife, Kelly, his family, and 
friends. The Sixth District of Massachusetts lost a true champion, but 
I know that his legacy will live on through our shared commitment to 
public service. Dom, you will be missed.
