On the recordApril 12, 1994
Mr. Speaker, President John F. Kennedy appointed Judge Byron R. White to the U.S. Supreme Court in 1962. His distinguished service on the Court continued over three decades, until 1993. Justice White was the only native son of Colorado to serve on the Supreme Court. Not only was he an outstanding scholar, he was also a highly skilled athlete. Justice White was revered for his detailed knowledge of the U.S. Constitution, and for his balanced approach to many of the the sensitive and controversial issues of the 1960's. Justice White is an exemplary jurist, skilled author, and outstanding lawyer. Consequently, it is a fitting and appropriate honor that this United States courthouse be named after Judge White. This bill has my enthusiastic support, and the bipartisan support of the committee. I urge adoption of H.R. 3693.
