When reelected in 2004, Senator Gregg received the highest number of votes in New Hampshire history. He also served the Granite State as Governor (1989-1993) and U.S. Representative (1981- 1989). Senator Gregg is a national leader on fiscal policy, a well-known budget expert, and a respected voice on health care, economic, and financial regulatory issues. His commonsense New Hampshire values have shaped some of the most significant legislation that Congress has passed in recent decades. Senator Gregg played a major role in rescuing our country from the brink of economic collapse as a chief negotiator of the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008. He also was the lead sponsor of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 and, along with the late Senator Ted Kennedy, coauthored the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001. Working across the aisle, Senator Gregg was a key decisionmaker on several important issues. He championed bipartisan efforts to address the Nation's looming entitlement crisis, improve our health care system, and revamp our complex and inequitable tax system. In March 2010, Senator Gregg also was appointed to President Obama's National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility. This bipartisan commission, which is modeled after legislation first introduced by Senator Gregg and Senator Kent Conrad, is responsible for developing recommendations that will help balance the budget and achieve fiscal sustainability over the long term. As a member of the Senate Banking Committee, Senator Gregg served as one of the principal negotiators working to modernize our Nation's financial regulatory system. His expertise on banking issues and derivatives reform positioned him as a pivotal voice in the debate on regulatory reform. Senator Gregg remains focused on maintaining our Nation's position as the best destination for capital and investment, as well as helping job creators and families obtain affordable credit during these challenging economic times. In New Hampshire, Senator Gregg is known as one of the State's greatest champions of land conservation, as he continues to build on a 30-year commitment to protect the State's environment. To date, his efforts have helped preserve more than 337,000 acres of sensitive land. As the former chairman of the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee, he was also a major force for promoting excellence in the higher education community in New Hampshire, especially at the University of New Hampshire. A New Hampshire native, Senator Gregg attended Columbia University (A.B. 1969), received his J.D. in 1972 from Boston University Law School and his LL.M. in tax law in 1975. He is married to Kathleen MacLellan Gregg. They have two daughters, one son, and one granddaughter. Senator and Mrs. Gregg are residents of Rye Beach, NH. Farewell to the Senate Tuesday, December 14, 2010 Mr. GREGG. Mr. President, I rise today on behalf of myself and my wife Kathy to thank the people of New Hampshire for giving us the great honor and privilege to represent them. This is an extraordinary body, the Senate. It is filled with wonderful people. I look around this room and I see a lot of them, friends, people I have had the chance to work with. I admire them immensely. I thank them for their friendship. When people ask me about leaving the Senate, and what is the thing I am going to miss the most, I always say, it is the people, the people of the Senate, because they are special, dedicated to making this country a better place, dedicated to doing their jobs well, dedicated to serving America. So I thank you for the great honor and privilege that you have given Kathy and me to allow us to serve and participate in this body with yourselves and your spouses. I want to thank everybody else who has been so helpful throughout our career, the folks here at the dais, the staff, people in the Cloakroom, throughout this building. I mean, there are so many people who make this Senate work, people working in the furniture room, and people working in the hallways, and our staffs, obviously. This is a special place filled with people who are committed to making the Senate work. I thank them for allowing Kathy and me to be part of that. I want to take a point of personal privilege here and especially thank my wife Kathy who is here today. You are not allowed to acknowledge people, I know that, but I am going to violate the rules. My wife is sitting right up there. Kathy. We have been married 37 years, and for 32 of those years we have held elective office; nine major campaigns, innumerable campaigns such as those for other people that we have participated in.

Cover of TRIBUTES TO HON. EVAN BAYH Evan Bayh U.S. SENATOR FROM INDIANA TRIBUTES IN THE CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] TONGRESS.#15 ? [GRAPHIC] [TIFF OMITTED] T4800.001 Evan Bayh ? Tributes Delivered in Congress Evan Bayh United States Senator 1999-2011 a ? Compiled under the direction of the Joint Committee on Printing CONTENTS Biography............................................. v Farewell to the Senate................................ vii Proceedings in the Senate: Tributes by Senators: Akaka, Daniel K., of Hawaii.................... 12 Alexander, Lamar, of Tennessee................. 3 Conrad, Kent, of North Dakota.................. 7 Dodd, Christopher J., of Connecticut........... 11 Durbin, Richard, of Illinois................... 11 Enzi, Michael B., of Wyoming................... 9 Harkin, Tom, of Iowa........................... 14 Hatch, Orrin G., of Utah....................... 13 Landrieu, Mary L., of Louisiana................ 7 Levin, Carl, of Michigan....................... 8 Murkowski, Lisa, of Alaska..................... 18 Reed, Jack, of Rhode Island.................... 5 Reid, Harry, of Nevada......................... 5, 6 Snowe, Olympia J., of Maine.................... 16 Warner, Mark R., of Virginia................... 5 BIOGRAPHY U.S. Senator Evan Bayh is focused on providing hard- working Hoosier families with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed today. From his work to help stimulate the economy by creating jobs and growing small businesses to his fight to keep a college education within the reach of all Hoosiers, Senator Bayh continues to break through the partisan gridlock of Washington to help more Hoosiers make a better life for themselves and their children. His commitment to making real progress instead of participating in political showdowns has set Senator Bayh apart as a leader on a wide range of important issues facing the Nation. Elected to his second term in November 2004, Senator Bayh has proven he is ''more concerned with reflecting what he believes is right for Indiana citizens than with playing to the Beltway crowd,'' says the Indianapolis Star. His signature legislative efforts are aimed at strengthening our national security, creating more jobs through the growth of small businesses, protecting American workers from unfair trade practices, encouraging responsible fatherhood, and providing tax-relief for families struggling with the rising costs of college, retirement, and the long-term care of a loved one. Senator Bayh has taken the lead in providing our troops with the armored vehicles they need and has visited Iraq and Afghanistan several times for a firsthand look at the progress on the ground. He has also led the fight to cut through the mire of bureaucracy to ensure our Nation's wounded soldiers receive the high quality care they need and deserve. Evan Bayh served on six Senate Committees: Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs, for which he was the chairman of the Subcommittee on International Trade and Finance; Armed Services, for which he was the chairman on Readiness and Management Support; Energy and Natural Resources; the Select Committee on Intelligence; Small Business and Entrepreneurship; and the Special Committee on Aging. While some have been content to let partisanship continue to threaten progress on the Nation's most pressing issues, Evan Bayh has continued to look for ways to build consensus and do what's right for Americans. In January 2005, he spearheaded the creation of the Third Way, an organization focused on commonsense legislative solutions on issues that would otherwise remain bogged down in political turf wars. Senator Bayh also served for more than 4 years as chairman of the Democratic Leadership Council, which offers support to elected officials and community leaders who take a progressive approach to the issues facing the country. Before his election to the Senate, Evan Bayh was elected in 1988 to the first of two terms as Governor of Indiana, where he established the State as one of the strongest, most financially secure economies in the Nation. ''Mr. Bayh's record,'' reported the Wall Street Journal in 1992, ''is one of a genuinely fiscally conservative Democrat.'' Stressing fiscal responsibility, lower taxes, job creation, and lean government, Bayh's list of achievements include 8 years without raising taxes; the greatest single tax cut and largest budget surplus in State history; national leadership in moving people from welfare to work; more dollars for schools every year; high academic standards and new college opportunities for all, including low-income students; more than 350,000 new jobs; tougher laws on crime; and improved environmental quality. Evan Bayh was born in Shirkieville, IN. He graduated with honors in business economics from Indiana University in 1978, and received his law degree from the University of Virginia in 1981. After clerking for a Federal court judge and entering private law practice in Indianapolis, he was elected Indiana's secretary of state in 1986, the first of his five statewide victories. Senator Bayh counts as his most important role and greatest responsibility a position he assumed in November 1995: proud father of twin sons Beau and Nick
