                        HON. DENNIS J. KUCINICH

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, March 14, 2008

  Mr. KUCINICH. Madam Speaker, I rise today in honor and recognition of 
the Cleveland Federal Executive Board, and all federal employees of our 
community for their individual and collective dedication as public 
servants, focused on the public good.
  The community of federal employees in Cleveland, Ohio, is comprised 
of more than 25,000 individuals who contribute their talent, trade and 
expertise daily within an array of roles, including park rangers, 
administrators, accountants, clerical employees, attorneys, engineers, 
military personnel, mail carriers, scientists, nurses and physicians.
   The professional contributions extended daily by federal employees 
serve as a foundation of support, safety and security throughout our 
community. Every day, the environment is monitored; the mail is 
delivered; veterans receive medical care; our national park is 
preserved; immigrants are guided to citizenship; citizens are provided 
with benefits and programs; and the universe is studied and explored by 
the astronomers.
   Madam Speaker and colleagues, please join me in honoring the members 
of the Cleveland Federal Executive Board and the thousands of federal 
employees who live and work within our Cleveland community. Their 
dedication to their work continues to preserve, protect and strengthen 
our entire community.

                          ____________________
