 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, I rise today to 
honor the Postal Employees of the New Hampshire Performance Cluster, a 
group of dedicated public servants who have been recognized for 
exemplary performance of service duties. On April 3rd of this year, The

other districts in the nation receiving the Order of the Yellow Jersey 
Award for Excellence in customer service. This prestigious award is 
based on the percentage of residential customers who rated the postal
