over the past 18 years, Aquinas Housing Corporation has sponsored and developed the rehabilitation of 35 buildings, 990 residential units, 104 cooperatives, and 115 two-and three-family homes.

I ask my colleagues to join me in paying tribute to America's greatest boxing promoter, Mr. Don King.
I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating Mr. Felix ``Tito'' Trinidad for his contributions and dedication to boxing, as well as for serving as a role model for the youth of Puerto Rico and America.
