  Mr. OLSON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to commemorate OCuSoft's 
dedication of their new building in the name of their co-founder, 
Bernard T. Halloran.
  Thirty years ago, Bernard, alongside Nat Adkins and Cynthia Barrett, 
helped form OCuSoft, a ground-breaking company in my district 
specializing in the research, development and supply of skin and eye 
care products. They are a pioneer in their field, innovating many new 
products including the first commercially available eyelid cleanser.
  Mr. Halloran embodies everything that's great about America--
entrepreneurship, innovation and job creation. It's inspiring to think 
about all the advances that will take place within the building bearing 
his name in the years to come.
  I had the pleasure of speaking at the dedication ceremony, where I 
asked who was in favor of naming the new building after Bernard.
  Needless to say, the ``EYES'' had it.
  Congratulations to OCuSoft and Bernard T. Halloran on this tremendous 
achievement.
