                    ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF ARLENE SIDELL

  Mr. McCAIN. Before we begin to consider items on today's agenda for 
our Executive Session, I would like to take a moment to acknowledge and 
extend my heartfelt thanks to Arlene Sidell. Arlene, sitting before us, 
is the Director of the Commerce Committee Public Information Office, 
and our official clerk for committee executive sessions. This will be 
the last time we will see Arlene at one of our mark-ups, as she will 
soon be retiring from an exemplary career in public service.
  Arlene began her tenure with the Commerce Committee 36 years ago, in 
March of 1963. She has served the Senate and our Committee with 
distinction ever since, and will certainly be missed. Again, Arlene, 
please know how grateful I am for your dedication, commitment and 
tireless efforts on behalf of the Members, both past and present, of 
this Committee.
