                         Tuesday, July 18, 2000

  Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Madera 
County Supervisor Gail Hanhart McIntyre for being selected as the 
recipient of the Rose Ann Vuich Ethical Leadership Award for the year 
2000.
  The award, sponsored by the the Fresno Bee and the Fresno Business 
Council, honors Senator Vuich, who consistently maintained high ethical 
standards and earned bipartisan respect throughout her career in the 
State legislature. It also recognizes elected leaders who symbolize 
integrity, strength of character, and exemplary ethical behavior.
  Gail Hanhart McIntyre is the first woman to serve on the Board of 
Supervisors in Madera County, California. As a member of the Board of 
Supervisors, she represents the City of Madera and has built consensus 
among city council members over the years. Ms. McIntyre promotes job 
growth, protects the agricultural concerns of the area and is working 
to create a better quality of life for the city of Madera.
  Currently, Ms. McIntyre is serving her third term as Board Chairman. 
She has also served on numerous other committees, including: the 
Private Industry Council, the Mental Health Advisory Board, the San 
Joaquin Valley Unified Air Pollution Control District, and the Fresno 
Madera Agency on Aging.
  Mr. Speaker, I want to congratulate Gail Hanhart McIntyre for being 
selected as the recipient of the Rose Ann Vuich Ethical Leadership 
Award for the year 2000. I urge my colleagues to join me in wishing her 
many more years of continued success.
