               HONORING LORETTA WEINBERG ON HER BIRTHDAY

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JOSH GOTTHEIMER

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, February 6, 2017

  Mr. GOTTHEIMER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today, on her birthday, to honor 
the tireless dedication of Senator Loretta Weinberg to the people of 
New Jersey. Senator Weinberg has

been a remarkable advocate for the people of Bergen County for decades, 
serving first as Assistant Administrator of Bergen County, on the 
Teaneck Council, then in the New Jersey Assembly and now in the New 
Jersey State Senate. She is currently the Senate Majority Leader.
   Majority Leader Weinberg has used every post she's held to fight 
tenaciously on behalf of the people of New Jersey. She's advocated 
relentlessly for making the investments in our infrastructure that we 
need to keep our economy humming and create new jobs, for ethics and 
transparency in government, for strengthening our communities, and for 
women, and for all of those left out of the circle of opportunity.
   I salute Weinberg for her strong and dogged voice, her countless 
accomplishments, and for her tireless advocacy on behalf of the people 
of New Jersey. I look forward to working with her to serve our mutual 
constituents in Bergen County.
