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.
“REMEMBERING DR. MALCOLM DORMAN” mentioning Rick Scott was published in the Senate section on pages S2350-S2351 on April 29.
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.
The publication is reproduced in full below:
REMEMBERING DR. MALCOLM DORMAN
Mr. SCOTT of Florida. Madam President, I rise today to commemorate the life and legacy of Dr. Malcolm Dorman.
I had the privilege of knowing Dr. Dorman for nearly four decades. He was a dear friend, whose kindness and compassion was felt by all around him. He loved his family and friends deeply and would do anything for them. He was a man of great faith, served his synagogue faithfully, and steadfastly supported many Jewish causes. In 1995 he was awarded the Man of the Year Award by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and in 2006, he was awarded the Distinguished Guardian of Israel Award by Shimon Peres, former Prime Minister of the State of Israel and Nobel Peace Prize Winner.
Dr. Dorman was a spectacular surgeon who saved many lives and exuded compassion and love for his patients. For 25 years, he served as the chairman of the Department of Cardiovascular Surgery and cochairman of the Department of Cardiovascular Medicine at the Miami Heart Institute. He then moved to the JFK Medical Center in Atlantis, FL, where he was the medical director of cardiac surgery and established and directed the Valvular Heart Institute. Along with the countless patients he helped heal, Dr. Dorman invested in the growth of students as a member of the Florida Atlantic University Board of Trustees and FAU's Charles E. Schmidt College of Medicine Advisory Board. He selflessly gave his time and effort to serve others and help them grow into all that they could be.
Ann and I are praying for all of Dr. Dorman's family, friends, and loved ones. He exemplified what it means to love and to serve and was a dependable friend I looked up to. We mourn this very heavy loss, but we are blessed to have known Dr. Dorman and to call him a friend.
