  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize San Antonio City 
Councilman Ron Segovia's tremendous contribution to his community in my 
Congressional District of San Antonio, Texas.
  Councilman Ron Segovia attended Harlandale High School in San 
Antonio, where he was a member of the ROTC. He studied at San Antonio 
College, and graduated from the Police Academy in 1975.
  He served for 28 years as a San Antonio Police Officer, working in 
such special programs as DARE, SWAT, Crime Prevention, and Gang 
Resistance Education and Training. He was a part of the School Services 
program, which provided outreach and information to public school 
students.
  Ron is also a successful small businessman. He owns Ron's Jewelers, 
which has been a fixture of the community for 22 years. He has used his 
role as a business owner to act as a benefactor and support educational 
programs in the community.
  As a lifelong San Antonio resident he has given so much back to the 
community, as a protector, civil servant, and businessman.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to have had this opportunity to recognize 
Councilman Ron Segovia.
