                       REMEMBERING KAREN FERGUSON

 Ms. WARREN. Madam President, today is the birthday of Karen 
Ferguson, a tireless advocate for retirement security, who sadly passed 
away in December. She started a movement for improved worker's rights 
and better pensions. Forty-six years ago today, she founded the Pension 
Rights Center in aid of that effort. As recently as this past March, 
Karen's impact can be seen in the passage of the Butch Lewis Act, which 
helps protect the benefits of workers and retirees in multiemployers 
plans. We are deeply grateful for Karen's work and can honor her legacy 
by continuing to fight so that everyone can retire with dignity and 
security.
