*******************
Edward J. Derwinski1, 1926 -
Edward Joseph Derwinski (R) was born September 15, 1926, in Chicago, Illinois. He entered the U.S. Army in 1945, serving in the Pacific arena and later during the Japanese occupation. Following his time in the service, he graduated from Loyola University in Chicago with a B.A. in history (1952).

Derwinski was elected to two terms in the Illinois House of Representatives (1952-1956); in 1958, Illinois voters elected Derwinski to the U.S. Congress, where he served until 1982. In Congress, he served on the House Foreign Affairs, Post Office, and Civil Service Committees. In the interim, in 1971, Derwinski served as delegate to the United Nations General Assembly and later as chairman of the U.S. delegation to the Interparlimentary Union, an international body of legislators (1970-1972).

After leaving Congress, Derwinski was a counselor at the Department of State (1983-1987) and served as undersecretary of state for security assistance, science and technology (1988).

President George H.W. Bush nominated him to be the first cabinet-level secretary of veterans' affairs in 1989, and Derwinski remained in that post for the duration of the Bush administration (1989-1993). Since leaving the government in the fall of 1992, Mr. Derwinski has been serving as an international consultant with the firm of Derwinski and Associates.

Lloyd Meeds2, 1927 -
Lloyd Meeds (D) was born in Dillon, Montana on, December 11, 1927. He served in the U.S. Navy from 1946 to 1947. Meeks received his Associates degree from Everett Junior College in 1949 and his LL.B. from Gonzaga University in 1958. He was subsequently admitted to the Bar in Washington State, the District of Columbia, and the U.S. Supreme Court. Before his election to Congress in 1964, was the prosecuting attorney for Snohomish County, Washington.

Lloyd Meeds, a seven-term member of the United States Congress from the state of Washington, served on the House Rules Committee, the Committee on Interior and Insular Affairs, and the Committee on Education and Labor. Lloyd has consistently been ranked as one of the most effective lobbyists in Washington, D.C. by Washingtonian magazine.

While in Congress, Lloyd was chairman of the Interior Subcommittee on Water and Power Resources. In private practice, he focuses on legislative advocacy and has extensive knowledge of the procedures of the House of Representatives. His particular interests are education and natural resources issues. He supervises and participates in the passage of measures ranging from simple amendments to complex legislation in both the House and Senate.

Meeds’ life has been one of laboring for the greater good. He was instrumental in passage of such landmark education legislation as the Elementary Education Act, the Higher Education Act, and the Vocational Education Act. Also, he was prime sponsor of the Legal Services Act in the House that entitled people to legal representation that they otherwise could not afford. He was an original sponsor of the Older Americans Act and served on the Interior Committee, where he was active in the federal designation of national parks, recreation and wilderness areas. In addition, Meeds is proud of his effectiveness in congress on behalf of Native Americans and in establishing restitution for the Native people.
