I rise in support of H.R. 2804, which designates, as has been mentioned, the U.S. Courthouse located at 95 Seventh Street in San Francisco as the James R. Browning United States Courthouse. Judge Browning has been an outstanding jurist and a brilliant administrator for the Ninth Circuit Court for the past 40 years. By crafting creative solutions to a large case backlog and a slow appeals process, Judge Browning has improved our judicial system both in the Ninth Circuit, and everywhere his reforms have been emulated. I urge my colleagues to honor him today for his lifetime of service.
