                    HONORING CONGRESSMAN SEAN DUFFY

  (Mr. BUDD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BUDD. Mr. Speaker, on September 23, Congress will lose one of its 
most dedicated Members as Sean Duffy retires from the House.
  I will miss his unwavering commitment to conservative principles and 
the way that he never backed down from a fight. In fact, he welcomed 
them. But he also engaged in a battle of ideas, and he never made it 
personal.
  It is because of this attitude that freedom and liberty will be 
sustained a little longer, and I wish we had more like him. I also 
respected his legislative accomplishments, particularly his commitment 
to protecting our State-based system of insurance regulation, just one 
of his many passions during his time as chairman and ranking member of 
the Housing and Insurance Subcommittee.
  Mr. Speaker, Sean will be remembered by me as a friend, a loving 
father, a dedicated husband, and a humble public servant. I, for one, 
hope this is not the last we hear or see of Congressman Sean Duffy.
