                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 3, 2016

  Mr. NORCROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate James Kehoe 
on his recent retirement as Business Manager for the Plumbers & 
Pipefitters Local Union 322 of Winslow Township, New Jersey, after 
thirty-six years of membership. Jim has had a lasting impact for 
generations to come and I would like to applaud him for his service.
  Jim graduated from Rutgers University with a degree in Business 
Administration in 1979 and then joined the Local 322 Apprenticeship 
Program. He served his community tirelessly with the Camden County 
Improvement Authority and the Camden County United Way. As Vice 
President of the Southern New Jersey AFL-CIO, a board member of the 
Union Organization for Social Service and president of the Southern New 
Jersey Building Trades Council, Jim worked to improve the lives of 
working families in New Jersey.
  As a trustee at Rowan University, a board member on the Senator 
Walter Rand Institute of Public Affairs at Rutgers University and as 
chair of the Casino Reinvestment Development Authority, Jim has worked 
tirelessly to improve the lives of families and all of southern New 
Jersey. Jim has worked with multiple community service organizations, 
including the Salvation Army, Catholic Charities, Boy Scouts of America 
and the American Red Cross and I commend him for his social action and 
devotion to the betterment of our communities.
  Mr. Speaker, James Kehoe is a great American whose dedication to 
community service is an inspiration to his family, friends, and our 
entire state. I join with his Plumbers & Pipefitters brothers and 
sisters and all of New Jersey in thanking him for his outstanding 
service and in wishing him continued success and prosperity in all his 
future endeavors.
