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 JEFFERY SCOTT BOREN” mentioning the U.S. Dept. of Transportation was published in the Extensions of Remarks section on pages E1369 on Oct. 30, 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 JEFFERY SCOTT BOREN
______
HON. TRENT KELLY
of mississippi
in the house of representatives
Wednesday, October 30, 2019
Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the life of Jeffery Scott Boren, who passed away on Wednesday, September 11th, at the age of 46.
Jeff, a lifelong Mississippi resident, lived with his family in Itawamba County, Mississippi, and was a dedicated employee for the Mississippi Department of Transportation. Throughout his life, Jeff set an example for his family to follow. He was an active member of Ozark Baptist Church, where he was chosen to serve as a Deacon of the church.
Left to cherish his memory is his wife, Candace Boren; his daughter, Alisha Boren; his brother Gary Boren; and his mother, Diane Knight of Mantachie, Mississippi, as well as many more extended family members and friends.
Jeff's life was one of service, grace, love for his family, and community. He will be greatly missed by all whom he encountered.
