                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 15, 2003

  Mr. KIRK. Mr. Speaker, I am honored to recognize the 90th anniversary 
of Riverwoods, IL based CCH Incorporated. For nearly a century, CCH has 
set the standard in reporting and explaining the complexities of 
American tax law. Their flagship product, The Standard Federal Tax 
Reporter, is essential to the accounting, human resources, banking, 
securities, insurance, government and health care professionals who 
must adapt to the dynamics of the federal tax code.
  CCH was founded in 1913--the year that the U.S. federal income tax 
was created. The company has always made its home in the Chicago area. 
In 90 years, CCH has grown into a multi-national, public company that 
serves tax and legal professionals around the globe. It is a great 
asset to my district. The company employs more than 1,500 individuals 
here in Chicago and more than 2,300 across the U.S.
  In spite of its tremendous growth and development, CCH has remained 
faithful to its original mission: to provide incomparable tax products 
that are clear, accurate and timely. I am most proud to represent CCH 
Incorporated. I congratulate them on this, the 90th anniversary of 
their inception, and I thank them for their innumerable contributions 
to legal and tax professionals throughout our district and around the 
world.
