I would like my colleagues to join me in thanking Joyce Revell for 21 years of exemplary service to the U.S. Senate and on wishing her well during her retirement. Joyce Revell has dedicated her life to the service of our Nation and to the citizens of Maryland. At age 18, she joined the U.S. Army, where she served for 2 years. In 1977, she joined the staff of Senator Paul Sarbanes, where she became an integral part of his State office staff, providing information and service to constituents. In 2007, I was fortunate and privileged when Joyce agreed to join my staff when I was sworn into the U.S. Senate. Joyce is one of the most outstanding caseworkers I have ever met, and she has developed an expertise in a field that is often difficult and heartbreaking. Joyce's knowledge of immigration law rivals any attorney in the field, and thousands of Marylanders over the years have sought her advice and counsel when navigating our Nation's immigration process.
