testified in his honor at the Kennedy Caucus Room in Washington,

by invitation of Sen. Rand Paul. When she concluded the testimony,
she was greeted with the news of his death. John Pozsgai was
a Hungarian Freedom Fighter. After emigrating to the United States
he became a national hero for his decades of resistence to the
EPA and U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for their spurious charges
of violations of wetlands rules.
