                    COMMENDING AMBASSADOR TIM CARNEY

  Mr. DeWINE. Mr. President, on another matter related to Haiti, I take 
this opportunity this evening to commend and thank my friend, 
Ambassador Tim Carney, for his 2-year service as U.S. Ambassador to 
Haiti. Tim and his wife Vicki proudly represented the United States. 
Day in and day out, they were committed to helping the people of Haiti 
overcome their dismal surroundings and their dire circumstances. Tim 
and Vicki worked to alleviate hunger and poverty throughout the island 
and encouraged practical economic reforms.
  Through the support and cooperation of Ambassador Carney and Vicki, 
the conditions of several Haitian orphanages continue to improve. 
Although the Carneys' assignment in Haiti has concluded, their 
commitment continues today.
  My wife Fran and I appreciate their friendship. We appreciate the 
support and help they have given to the children of Haiti. We look 
forward to continuing our work with them to help the children of Haiti.
