The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.
“RECOGNIZING THE LIFE OF ROBERT MOORE” mentioning Mark Kelly was published in the Extensions of Remarks section on page E89 on Feb. 2.
Of the 100 senators in 117th Congress, 24 percent were women, and 76 percent were men, according to the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress.
Senators' salaries are historically higher than the median US income.

RECOGNIZING THE LIFE OF ROBERT MOORE
______
HON. TRENT KELLY
of mississippi
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, February 2, 2021
Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the life of Robert ``R.G.'' Moore who passed away January 6, 2021.
R.G. Moore was born on February 5, 1943 to Albert R and Mary M. Moore in Louise, Mississippi. R.G. dedicated his life to service and state as a SSGT U.S. Marine Corps Veteran. He also founded the Marine Corps League and became a founding member of the Desoto County Veteran's Park in Southaven, Mississippi.
R.G. served 34 years and retired as Captain from the Memphis Police Department. He was also involved with the American Legion Post No. 134 of Horn Lake and Rolling Thunder MS Chapter No. 2. I am grateful for Mr. Moore's lifetime of service to the United States and the state of Mississippi.
Left to cherish his memory is his wife of 54 years, Diane. He is remembered by his two sons; Matthew and Mark; and five grandchildren, Jackson, Tucker, Rylie, Lucy and Lily.
Mr. R.G. Moore was a light unto all who had the opportunity to know and love him, and he will be deeply missed. My deepest condolences are with his family and friends.
