    :: Thursday, June 19, 2003 ::

    Testimony of Damon A. Silvers Good morning Chairman Boehner, Congressman Miller, and members of the Committee. My name is Damon Silvers, and I am Counsel to the Chairman of ULLICO Inc. I am also an Associate General Counsel of the AFL-CIO. I am grateful for the opportunity to appear today on behalf of ULLICO to discuss the events of the last several years.

    Let me begin by stating on behalf of ULLICO that we believe our company was the victim of serious misconduct during the period from 1998 to 2002. As I will describe in some detail, the company is currently hard at work understanding and repairing that misconduct. The company is here today to help the Committee understand what happened and to brief the Committee on how the company's directors, shareholders, and constituents within the broader labor movement responded and continue to respond to that misconduct.
