Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. MRVAN. Mr. Speaker, it is with great respect that I rise to recognize former Indiana Governor Frank O'Bannon as we reflect on the 20-year anniversary of his passing.

The O'Bannon family and the Mrvan family have had great partnerships over the decades. My father was a State legislator for over 40 years and partnered on countless occasions to take positive and impactful action for the people of Indiana as Frank O'Bannon served in the General Assembly and as Governor.

I remain grateful for the example they have provided in how to work together with members on both sides of the aisle and with all levels of government to find common ground and achieve success.

In particular, I appreciate their priority to improve educational opportunities and affordable healthcare options for all members of our community.

Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing the service of Governor O'Bannon to Indiana, our Nation, and let us keep in mind his commitment to public service and solving problems as we move forward with addressing the issues of today.
