On the recordMarch 3, 1994
I rise today to congratulate station WTOP- AM, Washington, DC's only all-news radio, on its 25th anniversary, and to extend my very best wishes to its 23 anchors, 11 reporters, 12 editors, and 2 writers. I would like to especially commend the station's Capitol Hill reporter, Dave McConnell, who day after day, vote after vote, with style and grace, informs his listeners about the legislation, the personalities, and the drama of the U.S. Congress. I would also like to salute WTOP's energetic Montgomery County reporter, Janice Sosebee, a former student of mine at Montgomery College, who covers the people and news of my home county and my congressional district. Twenty-four hours a day, in good times and bad, those of us who live in the Washington metro area know we can rely on WTOP for the latest in news, weather, and sports. It has never let us down since its debut as an all-news outlet in 1969.
