                       TRIBUTE TO THE HONORABLE 
                        JO ANN DAVIS OF VIRGINIA

  (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. Madam Speaker, I rise to pay tribute to 
Representative Jo Ann Davis with whom I served as she served as 
chairperson and I as ranking member on our subcommittee in Government 
Reform.
  It was always a pleasure to work with her. And while we didn't always 
agree on every issue that came before us, we always agreed that we 
would be civil and that we would work in tandem for the best interests 
of the people of this country.

  So I'm going to miss her. I extend my personal condolences to her 
family and would just like for her to know that it was indeed a 
pleasure working with her.
