HONORING LIFE AND LEGACY OF TOM MOE

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 71 (Wednesday, April 22, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 71 (Wednesday, April 22, 2026)] [House] [Page H3050] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING LIFE AND LEGACY OF TOM MOE (Ms. MORRISON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Ms. MORRISON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of Tom Moe, a distinguished University of Minnesota student-athlete, administrator, and community leader whose contributions left a lasting impact on generations of Minnesotans. Tom Moe was a standout multisport athlete for the U, excelling in both football and baseball. Following his time as a student-athlete, Mr. Moe built a successful career in law and business, becoming managing partner at Dorsey & Whitney where he helped grow the firm into one of the largest in the Nation. He later returned to the U to serve as director of the men's athletic department where he emphasized academic excellence and helped guide the successful merger of the men's and women's programs. His lifelong dedication to the U extended through his family, with his children and grandchildren continuing his legacy as student- athletes. Throughout his lifetime, Moe exemplified leadership, integrity, and a deep commitment to his community. He will be remembered both for his accomplishments and for the lasting impact he made on the University of Minnesota and the many lives he touched. On behalf of the people of Minnesota, I extend my deepest condolences to the Moe family and express our gratitude for Tom Moe's extraordinary life and legacy. ____________________
