“ HON. BEN CHANDLER
of kentucky
in the house of representatives
Thursday, July 30, 2009
Mr. CHANDLER. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of one of
Kentucky's premier journalists, a man who has shaped countless events
and policies in the Commonwealth of Kentucky for decades, Mr. David
Hawpe. After 40 years of public service journalism, tough reporting,
and insightful analysis as editorial director, he will retire on August
14, 2009. I cannot begin to adequately describe the immeasurable
contributions Mr. Hawpe has made to better the lives of all
Kentuckians. ”

“ Hawpe will be sorely missed, but
the impact of his work will be felt in my state, and, indeed the
nation, for many years to come.
Madam Speaker, there is no doubt in my mind that he has made our
great state even better.
This work is in the public domain in the United States because it is a work of the United States federal government (see 17 U.S.C. 105) . ”
