                      RECOGNIZING VINCE CONSIGLIO

  (Mr. WALBERG asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. WALBERG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a legend in the 
Michigan motorcycle freedom and safety community, Vince Consiglio, who 
announced his upcoming retirement in January. Vince is the president of 
ABATE of Michigan, or American Bikers Aiming Toward Education.
  Vince, who has served as president for over 30 years, joined ABATE in 
1975 and has served in multiple roles, including as Michigan's chief 
Motorcycle Safety Foundation instructor, teaching many MSF instructors 
the importance of safe riding practices.
  He has been integral in public education about issues impacting 
motorcyclists, working with State legislators to increase motorcycle 
awareness and protect the cherished heritage we share.
  I have personally known Vince for many years and know him to be a man

of character and passionate about motorcycles, especially his Harley.
  I wish Vince a happy and fulfilling retirement and thank him for his 
service to his fellow riders and ABATE.
