                               RESOLUTION

 
  Honoring the lives and memory of the victims of the crash of Comair 
Flight 5191, and extending the most sincere condolences of the citizens 
 of the United States to the families and friends of those individuals.

Whereas, on August 27, 2006, the Commonwealth of Kentucky suffered a tragic loss 
        when Comair Flight 5191 crashed shortly after takeoff at Blue Grass 
        Airport in Lexington, Kentucky;
Whereas 49 individuals perished in that tragic accident;
Whereas that event brought grief not only into the communities of Kentucky, such 
        as Lexington, Georgetown, Somerset, London, Harrodsburg, and Richmond, 
        but also to homes throughout the United States, Canada, and Japan; and
Whereas local volunteers and government officials responded quickly to rescue a 
        survivor, James Polehinke, investigate the accident, and provide relief 
        and recovery to the families and friends of the victims: Now, therefore, 
        be it
    Resolved, That the Senate--
            (1) recognizes and honors the victims of the crash of 
        Comair Flight 5191, including--
