  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
pay tribute to Charlotte Bobicki and thank her for her dedication to 
Colorado as an Alamosa County Commissioner. Her dedication and tireless 
efforts have done much to ensure a promising future for her 
constituents. As Charlotte moves on in her career, let it be known that 
she leaves behind a terrific legacy of commitment to the people of 
Alamosa County and the State of Colorado.
  An Alamosa native, Charlotte worked for thrity-six years in the 
Alamosa Public School System as both a teacher and an administrator 
before being elected a county commissioner in 1996. During her tenure 
as a commissioner, Charlotte has been very active in health and human 
welfare issues. She serves on the Colorado State Board of Health, 
regional Workforce Committee, and Colorado Counties Incorporated. She 
also is a founding member of Action 22 in southern Colorado and serves 
as the San Luis Valley representative to the executive board of Action 
22. Last year, Charlotte served as Chairman of the Board of Alamosa 
County Commissioners, working to enhance relations between the county 
and other local and state agencies.
  Mr. Speaker, I am honored to pay tribute to Commissioner Charlotte 
Bobicki before this body of Congress and this nation, and to 
congratulate her on an outstanding career of public service. Her 
selfless dedication to her community and the people of Colorado as an 
Alamosa County Commissioner is truly remarkable. I wish her all the 
best in her future endeavors.
