H.R. No. 293 REPRESENTATIVE SCHNEIDER Honoring Katie Spotz as the youngest person to row across an ocean alone. Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Ohio: WHEREAS, The members of the House of Representatives of the 128th General Assembly of Ohio are pleased to congratulate Katie Spotz on becoming the youngest person to row across an ocean solo; and WHEREAS, A remarkable individual, Katie Spotz is deserving of recognition for her exemplary accomplishment in rowing. At the age of twenty-two, she rowed a one-person boat 2,817 miles from Dakar, Senegal, across the Atlantic Ocean to Georgetown, Guyana, in seventy days, five hours, and twenty-two minutes, raising money to benefit the Blue Planet Run Foundation, and she is the first American to row a boat under her own power from mainland to mainland; and WHEREAS, An exceptional athlete, Katie Spotz previously bicycled across the United States and became the first person to swim the length of the Allegheny River, and her latest achievement is a justifiable source of pride and a fine reflection not only on her but also on her family and her hometown, Mentor, Ohio. Her unwavering commitment to excellence has earned her the respect and esteem of many, and she is certainly worthy of high praise; and WHEREAS, Through this venture, Katie Spotz has learned important lessons of discipline, perseverance, and hard work that will undoubtedly be of great benefit to her throughout her life. Through her outstanding efforts, she has inspired countless individuals to excel in various areas of endeavor, and she has set an example worthy of emulation; therefore be it RESOLVED, That we, the members of the House of Representatives of the 128th General Assembly of Ohio, in adopting this Resolution, commend Katie Spotz on her personal success and extend best wishes for the future; and be it further RESOLVED, That the Clerk of the House of Representatives transmit a duly authenticated copy of this Resolution to Katie Spotz..

The former Labour administration in London had attracted widespread political and tourism sector criticism here in the Caribbean last year after it slapped a so-called ‘green levy’ on airline tickets, designed to discourage long-haul flights by putting a financial burden on passengers. The tax was originally set at around 40 pounds sterling per ticket and rose to around 50 pounds last November. It was due to increase further, to around 75 pounds sterling by November this year. Caribbean governments and regional tourist sector officials had lobbied the Labour administration hard in an effort to have the tax removed, coming as it did in the midst of the global economic recession and one of the more difficult years in the recent history of the regional tourism industry. Apart from the additional financial burden which the tax had placed on passengers, Caribbean governments and tourism officials had argued that the levy was discriminatory since some areas in the United States which were not affected by the heavy tax were actually further away from the United Kingdom than the Caribbean.
