Tony Hall Courthouse Resolution

Tuesday, February 08, 2005

Mr. Speaker, I rise today in strong support of this resolution to name the federal building in Dayton, Ohio after my friend and former colleague, Tony Hall.

Tony Hall took great pride in representing his hometown of Dayton in Congress for nearly 24 years. His father had served as Mayor of Dayton, and the strong values he learned growing up in that community were reflected in everything that he did. Tony fought hard for the people of Dayton.
