Recipients of the Professional Landcare Network?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s annual Business Champion of the Year Award were announced at PLANET?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s recent Legislative Day on the Hill event in Washington, D.C. this summer. Co-recipients of the award include U.S. Sens. Chuck Hagel (R-Neb.), Barbara Mikluski (D-Md.), and Mel Martinez (R-Fla.). This award was created to honor individuals who have positively influenced the green industry.
Serving his second term in the U.S. Senate, Hagel has played a valuable and potentially historic role in helping his colleagues assemble a comprehensive immigration reform bill that tackles all of the necessary issues. His work on immigration reform has been constructive and responsible.
Martinez also has worked hard on comprehensive immigration reform and the compromise offer that broke the Senate bill stalemate. He was sworn in as Florida?EUR??,,????'?????<???EUR?s senator in 2005 and took his place in the history books as the first Cuban-American to serve in the U.S. Senate.
PLANET also chose Mikulski as an award recipient because of her stand on H-2B issues in the bills that she has introduced over the years. She won her first Senate race in 1986 with 61 percent of the vote and was re-elected with large majorities in 1992, 1998, and 2004. Mikulski also serves as dean of the Senate women.
