                     BIRTH OF KATHERINE RILEY LUGAR

 Mr. LUGAR. Mr. President, I am pleased to share the news of 
the birth of Katherine Riley Lugar on December 28, 2005, at Sibley 
Memorial Hospital in Washington, DC. Katherine was a healthy 8 pounds, 
1 ounce at birth. Her parents are David Riley Lugar, son of Richard and 
Charlene Lugar; and his wife, Katherine Graham Lugar, daughter of 
Lawrence and Jane Graham. Katherine was born at 4:20 p.m. and in the 
next few hours was joined in the hospital delivery room by Jane Graham, 
Richard and Charlene Lugar, and David's brother, John Lugar with his 
wife, Kelly. We shared together a wonderful experience. On the next 
day, Katherine met her sister, Elizabeth Merrell Lugar, who was born at 
Sibley Memorial Hospital on May 25, 2004. The two girls and their 
parents are now safe and healthy in their McLean, VA, residence.
  Katherine and David were married on June 3, 2000, in St. David's 
Episcopal Church in Austin, TX. Katherine, a graduate of the University 
of Colorado, is Vice President of Federal Government Relations for St. 
Paul Travelers. David Lugar, who came with us to Washington, along with 
his three brothers, 29 years ago, graduated from Langley High School in 
McLean, VA, and Indiana University. He is a partner of Quinn Gillespie 
& Associates. Both Katherine and David are well known to many of our 
colleagues and their staff members. We know that you will understand 
our excitement and our joy that they and we have been given this divine 
blessing and responsibility for a glorious new chapter in our 
lives.
