willie mitchell was laid to rest today in memphis, tennessee. he produced a sound that included billhnson and anne peebles but his most famous find was al green. great horn player and a great musician, willie mitchell was in texas and al green was on the bill. he told al green, come back to memphis and i'll make you a star you and he did that. it happened so much in memphis. come to memphis and i'll make you a star and it happened. willie mitchell is a great part of that legend. he received the trustees award from the grammys in 2008 for a lifetime of achievement. he gave people lots of love and happiness and reasons to stay together, he and al green. he lives two wonderful daughters, two grandsons, a step-son and a musical history and a musical tradition that will live on forever. we'll all miss willie mitchell and i appreciate the fact that he came our way and helped produce the memphis sound. thank you, mr. speaker. the speaker pro tempore: for what purpose does the gentleman from minnesota rise? >> advice and extend my remarks. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. >> mr. s

they want me on this bill, and i would put them on, and it was something you did routinely, and finally, we got to that point, and you got it through the house, and terry mitchell was invaluable. i think he was chair of the caucus that year, and we got over the senate, and it was growing so much, and the day the senate was debating the bill, everybody flew up -- hundreds of people in the senate lobbyist, d we in the house started listening. they were making speeches in support of dr. king's legacy it more easily than we did in the house. the senators were going on and on and on, and it passed overwhelmingly. there were those vociferously opposed, but it was a done deal, and i will never forget the reporters that came up to meet after words, and they said, congressman conyers, what took so long about this bill? everybody was for it all the time, so if i ever wanted to land a haymaker on somebody, i mean, they had no idea what we had gone through to get this legislation passed, and i am so proud to celebrate all over the world, and now we're at the most exciting time in the development of american political history. we are now choosing between an african-american
