                     HONORING GLYN RAMAGE ON HIS RETIREMENT

      (Ms. BUDZINSKI asked and was given permission to address the House
    for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
      Ms. BUDZINSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the incredible
    career of Glyn Ramage and to congratulate him on his retirement.
      A resident of Millstadt, Illinois, and a lifelong labor champion,
    Glyn has inspired so many, including myself.

      For 25 years, Glyn served as business manager for the Downstate
    Illinois Laborers' District Council. During that time he fought to
    secure better benefits and higher wages for more than 10,000 union
    families.
      As a member of the Illinois Capital Development Board, Glyn brought
    workers' voices to the table that oversees State construction projects.
      He also chairs the Illinois Laborers' and Contractors' Joint
    Apprenticeship and Training Program to help build the next generation
    of construction workers.
      I thank Glyn for all he has done for Illinois' workers, the labor
    movement and our community.
      I congratulate Glyn on his retirement.
