Mr. Speaker, last week I received a call from George Mador. Mr. Mador is the President of L&M Aircraft Services, and he called my office looking for help. L&M is a small aircraft maintenance company that services charter airlines transporting passengers to and from the Bahamas. L&M has only seven employees, and many of them have been with the company for the majority of the company's existence. However, in the wake of the terrorist attacks on September 11, L&M is now facing imminent bankruptcy; and its seven employees, therefore, are facing certain unemployment.
