              REMEMBERING AUXILIARY BISHOP BENNIE ALLISON

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, Auxiliary Bishop Bennie Allison, 
pastor of Corinthian Temple Church of God in Christ in Chicago, passed 
away last week.
  Bishop Allison had a long and distinguished career as both a 
religious leader and a civic leader. In addition to his religious 
duties, he was chairman of the Garfield Organization and founder of the 
Allison Foundation for Better Living, which provided social services 
and job development opportunities for residents of the West Garfield 
community.
  I extend condolences to his wife and family and urge them to continue 
his great work.
