Mr. Speaker. I rise today to honor the accomplishments and contributions of Nick Berardino. the General Manager of Orange County Employees Association. Born and raised in Los Angeles to Italian immigrants. Nick is a Marine Veteran and served our country for two years in Vietnam. He became active in the civil rights movement. the first of what would become a lifetime of commitment to those who are oppressed or discriminated against. I have known Nick for years and he always looked for doing the best for his organization and the people he represented. From pension reform to workplace rights. he has led OCEA through a series of monumental achievements for the working men and women he represented.
