Congressman Earl Pomeroy sub-
mitted farewell remarks to the
U.S. House of Representatives on
Wednesday, Dec. 22. The remarks
will appear in the Congressional
Record.
The text of his remarks is below.
"Madam Speaker, I want to
take this opportunity to thank the
people of North Dakota for the
chance to represent our great state
in this great chamber for the past 9
terms. Words cannot adequately
express the feelings of gratitude I
have as my time as a member of
this body draws to a close. At vary-
ing times I've agreed or disagreed
with virtually every member-
Democratic or Republican - in this
House. Steering the course for the
United States of America is a very
difficult and complex undertaking.
As our country moves into its third
century in the first decade of the
new millennium, it seems like the
challenges only get bigger as we
go forward.
~ "But I 66nclude my~life here
~i ~ a stf~ sense of'/ibpe an~
op!i~mism'~{or the future~---The.~
United States Capitol is the icon j
of democracy known throughout':';
the world. In this historic place,li
sometimes in the darkest hour;J
leaders here assembled have set
the course to see us through. If the
American people exhibit the best.
aspects of their nature - courage,
community - the leaders in the
chamber will deliver accordingly.
'I will always treasure the time 1
had here. I won some, I lost some,
but I tried my best to reflect the
concerns of those I represented, as
well as the genuine goodness of
the folks who call North Dakota
home.
"North Dakotans have selected a
new Congressman, Representative-
elect Rick Berg, and I wish him
great success in delivering for our
state.
"In conclusion, there is one
group in particular I want to thank
- all of those who have served on
my staff now at the end or any time
during these nine terms. Present
and recent staff members include
Bob Siggins, Melanie Rhinehart
Van Tassell, Stacy Austad, Brenden
Timpe, Adam Durand, Dustin
Olson, Diane Oakley, Chris
Cunningham, Matt Pearce, Hillary
Price, David Grant. Annie
Finkenbinder, Ross Keys. Joan
Carlson, Dianne Mondr3L Nick
K'eaveny, G~dff Greenw.ood~ Bill
Heigaard, "and~'Erin Hill. ThW are
extraordinarily talented and dedi-
cated 'individuals, reflective of the
wonderfully gifted staff members I
have been privileged to work with
for the 18 years of my service in the
House.
"Now I look forward to more
time with my wife, Mary, and my
term ends and nay membership in
this body ceases. I thank my col-
leagues for their commitment to
work so hard to serve their con-
stituents and our country. I have
been richly blessed to have had the
chance to work with you in the pea,
pie's House- the United States
Congress."
