  Mr. TED LIEU of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise to speak about my 
friend Harvey Michael Horikawa, who passed away earlier this month. 
Harvey was an amazing individual and it was an honor to have known him.
  Harvey was born in Chicago in 1948 and raised in the Los Angeles 
area. After graduating from UCLA law school in 1973, he was a founding 
partner in two law firms where he specialized in civil litigation, 
trials, and administrative law. Mr. Horikawa also worked for three 
years in the Civil Liabilities Section of the Los Angeles City 
Attorney's Office, during which he devoted a significant amount of time 
defending claims against the Los Angeles Police Department. As a result 
of his extensive jury trial experience, Mr. Horikawa was invited

  While engaged in his law practice, Mr. Horikawa also served as a 
Commissioner for the California Fair Employment & Housing Commission, 
having been appointed by Governor George Deukmejian to the Commission 
in 1984.
  Mr. Horikawa continued to practice in the areas of employment, civil 
rights, and general litigation up until his death on October 18, 2017. 
His greatest joy was helping those in need and ensuring that everyone 
was treated with fairness and compassion under the law.
