Mr. Speaker. I yield myself such time as I may consume. Mr. Speaker. S. 1707 would designate the Federal building located at 617 Walnut Street in Helena. Arkansas. as the Jacob Trieber Federal Building. United States Post Office. and United States Court House. Judge Trieber. a Prussian immigrant. eventually became the first Jewish Federal judge in our Nations history. Settling in Helena. Arkansas. Judge Trieber issued rulings to protect against racial discrimination more than six decades before the Supreme Court would. For his unmatched dedication to justice. a lifetime of service. and his many landmark rulings. we seek support in renaming the Federal building in his honor.
