Mr. Speaker. it is an extraordinary honor and privilege for me to pay tribute to our longtime colleague and friend CLAUDE PEPPER. U.S. Senator. Congressman. and dedicated public servant. This giant of a man had a remarkable career and personality. First and foremost. CLAUDE was a true champion and fighter for the defenseless: the poor. the refugees. and. above all. the elderly. In addition to this noteworthy public career. CLAUDE always demonstrated rigorous moral standards and values in his private affairs. His career as a committed. public servant to our great Nation spanned more than half a century. As a young and energetic Senator from Florida.
