                 ON RETIREMENT OF HONORABLE EVA CLAYTON

  (Mr. INSLEE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. INSLEE. Mr. Speaker, this morning I learned of the pending 
retirement from Congress of a great colleague, Eva Clayton from North 
Carolina. I just want to note her tremendous service the last decade of 
not only in North Carolina but the whole country.
  I met Eva when she became president of our freshman class in 1992, 
and I think it showed the wisdom of our class in 1992 of having elected 
her to that position, because in the later 10 years, she has really 
provided great service, always in a very dignified, quiet manner and 
very successful for her constituents in North Carolina.
  I hope during her next 1-minute where she continues her public 
service talking about our need to deal with the AIDS crisis, we will 
give her our infinite attention because she has been a great Member for 
the last decade. I thank Representative Clayton for her public service.
