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.
“TRIBUTE TO CARL TRUSCOTT” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Justice was published in the Senate section on pages S12893-S12894 on Oct. 21, 1998.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
TRIBUTE TO CARL TRUSCOTT
Mr. HOLLINGS. Mr. President, I would like to take this opportunity to honor and thank an individual who has been a tremendous asset to the Commerce, Justice, State Appropriations Subcommittee for the last two years. That individual is Carl Truscott, a United States Secret Service agent who has worked with Senator Gregg's committee staff in preparing the fiscal year 1998 and 1999 CJS Appropriations bills.
Carl has been responsible for making policy and fiscal recommendations on the budgets of many of the Department of Justice programs. He's done this with integrity, an eye for detail, and a true bi-partisan spirit. Paramount to Carl's disposition is his belief in doing a good, thorough and fair job, which translated into him working closely with my staff and the Justice Department, ensuring that everyone was on the same page in regard to determining what would be best for the Department of Justice, for the interests of our States, and for the interests of our Senators, regardless on which side of the aisle they sit.
I'm sure Carl is moving on to bigger and better things--and I'm also certain he will earn the genuine appreciation for his hard work that he has won time and again here in the Senate. Carl will be missed by this Subcommittee. I wish him all the best in his future endeavors, and thank him again for all of his excellent work for the Commerce, Justice, and State Subcommittee.
