(October 17, 2006) Lipinski Honors Local Veteran | | Print | |
REP. LIPINSKI HONORS LOCAL VETERAN
Congressman Daniel Lipinski presented the very prestigious Distinguished Flying Cross Award and other medals to Specialist Joseph P. Stremplewski (Retired) four decades after he earned them for his heroism in the Vietnam War. Stremplewski was nominated for the Distinguished Flying Cross when he was discharged. The U.S. Army did not, however, send him the medals until he contacted Congressman Dan Lipinski's office to intercede. "It gives me great pleasure to know that my office was able to help him. I'm proud to have met this man who valiantly fought for our country," said Lipinski. |

Note on Social Security Fairness Act -
On September 29th, Congressman Lipinski signed the discharge petition that would provide for the consideration of H.R. 147, the Social Security Fairness Act; a bill that Congressman Lipinski is a cosponsor of. In enacted, H.R. 147 would amend title II of the Social Security Act to repeal the government pension offset (GPO) and windfall elimination provisions (WEP), thus this legislation would provide fairer benefits for Social Security recipients.
