E2332 | Congressional Record, Volume 144 Issue 152 (Thursday, November 12, 1998) [Congressional Record Volume 144, Number 152 (Thursday, November 12, 1998)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Pages E2332-E2333] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [www.gpo.gov] TRIBUTE TO JANE HARMAN ______ HON. ELLEN O. TAUSCHER of california in the house of representatives Thursday, November 12, 1998 Mrs. TAUSCHER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to a good friend and valued colleague, Jane Harman, whose distinguished career in the House of Representatives will come to a close with the end of the 105th Congress. [[Page E2333]] In my time in Congress, Mr. Speaker, I have developed the greatest respect and admiration for Jane Harman. Her dedication to this institution, her commitment to the people she represents, and her unfailing desire to work for the best interests of this nation set the standards to which all Members of Congress should strive. Whether the issue has been gender equity in the military or establishing a budget lockbox, Jane has been a true leader. When she speaks out on an issue, Mr. Speaker, we all know that she has given it thoughtful consideration and is well informed. Her sincerity and knowledge give her an authority that enables her to persuasively make her case and convince her colleagues of the rightness of her position. This ability has served her constituents and this country very well, and she should be proud of her many accomplishments. As a fellow Californian, I have always admired and respected the work Jane has done for our State. She will be sorely missed not only by her colleagues on the Hill, but by all those Californians who have come to rely on her reasoned and moderate approach to the issues. Mr. Speaker, the House of Representatives and the country are better for the service that Jane Harman has given us. I know that in the future she will continue her commitment to public service and her contributions to our nation will grow. I thank her for her efforts and wish her the best of luck for the future. ____________________ |
