“H.R. 2225 is a bill which will designate the federal building and United States Courthouse in Las Vegas, Nevada in honor of Chief Judge Lloyd D. George. Judge George and his family have lived in Nevada for over 6 decades. He is an active civic leader, devoted father of four children and 11 grandchildren. Judge George has received numerous awards and honors such as the Jurist of the Year award, the Liberty Bell award for public service, Distinguished Alumni Service award from his alma mater Brigham Young University, and Professional recognition from the National Conference of Christians and Jews. Judge George served the citizens of Nevada in the United States Bankruptcy Courts for 10 years prior to his appointment by President Reagan as a United States Judge in May 1984. It is fitting and proper to designate the federal building and United States Courthouse in Las Vegas in honor of Judge George in recognition of his significant civic and professional contributions.”
