“as dean of the New Mexico delegation in the House, it is my distinct pleasure and honor to welcome and congratulate the newest Member of the House of Representatives, the Honorable Bill Redmond of Los Alamos, NM. Mr. Redmond won last week's special election to New Mexico's Third Congressional District. Mr. Redmond won a most impressive victory in getting elected to the House, and many of us watched this race with significant interest and were involved in his successful election to Congress. I thank each and every one of my colleagues for their efforts on Mr. Redmond's behalf. I look forward to working with Bill Redmond in Congress on behalf of the principles each of us hold dear to our hearts: family values, sound and responsible fiscal budget policies, a strong national defense, and a vibrant economic and business economy. Welcome to the Congress, Mr. Redmond, and I wish you the best of success in representing the people of New Mexico's Third Congressional District. You are in a tremendous body with a tremendous group of people. Welcome.”
