VERSIONS OF THIS BILL
TO CONGRATULATE UNITED STATES CONGRESSMAN JOSEPH "JOE" CUNNINGHAM OF SOUTH CAROLINA'S FIRST CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES FOR HIS VICTORY IN THE NOVEMBER 2018 ELECTION.
Whereas, in November 2018, the Honorable Joseph "Joe" Cunningham was elected to serve in the United States House of Representatives from the First Congressional District, a district that had been held by the Republican Party since 1981; and
Whereas, originally from Western Kentucky, he is the youngest of five sons. He attended the College of Charleston for two years after graduating from high school and then transferred to Florida Atlantic University to study ocean engineering; and
Whereas, Congressman Cunningham earned a juris doctorate from Northern Kentucky University's Salmon P. Chase College of Law in 2011, and has worked as an engineer and practiced law; and
Whereas, as a political novice, the thirty-six-year-old Cunningham managed to win the seat with a 1.3 percent margin. The fifty-seven percent lead that Charleston County gave Mr. Cunningham was too great for his opponent to overcome; and
Whereas, vowing to work with others in Congress, he now serves on the Veterans' Affairs and Natural Resource committees, two posts dear to constituents in the Palmetto State. Now, therefore,
Be it resolved by the House of Representatives:
That the members of the South Carolina House of Representatives, by this resolution, congratulate United States Congressman Joseph "Joe" Cunningham of South Carolina's First Congressional District in the House of Representatives for his victory in the November 2018 election.
Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution be presented to the Honorable Joseph "Joe" Cunningham.
