The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“RECOGNIZING THE LIFE OF JEREMY ALLEN VOYLES” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Transportation was published in the Extensions of Remarks section on pages E1117 on Sept. 10, 2019.
The Department handles nearly all infrastructure crisscrossing the country. Downsizing the Federal Government, a project aimed at lowering taxes and boosting federal efficiency, said the Department should be privatized to save money, reduce congestion and spur innovation.

RECOGNIZING THE LIFE OF JEREMY ALLEN VOYLES
______
HON. TRENT KELLY
of mississippi
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, September 10, 2019
Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the life and service of Deputy Sheriff Jeremy Allen Voyles, who passed while on duty on Wednesday, August 28th at the age of 33.
Deputy Sheriff Voyles, a resident of Houston, Mississippi, was Deputy Sheriff with the Chickasaw County Sheriff's Department. He followed in the footsteps of his father, Houston Police Chief Billy Voyles, and had an 11-year career in law enforcement. During his five years with the Sheriff's Department, he worked as a Narcotics Agent with the North Mississippi Narcotics Unit. Deputy Sheriff Voyles had previously served with the Mississippi Department of Transportation.
Left to cherish his memory is his wife, Audrey Voyles; his daughters--Lola and Arrington Voyles; his parents--Billy and Anita Voyles; and his siblings--Chasity Mincy, Tyler Voyles, and Corey Voyles. I am thankful for Deputy Sheriff Voyles' service to Mississippi. He will be greatly missed by his family, community, and all whom he encountered.
