  Mr. CUELLAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Constable Robert 
Blount in my congressional district, for his exceptional career in law 
enforcement.
  Robert Blount was elected as Constable of Precinct Four in January 
2005, but has been actively serving his community for the last sixteen 
years. He believes in establishing a solid law enforcement agency that 
is committed to the needs of the community, and has devoted his 
department to serve the public through honesty and integrity .
  Constable Blount is an excellent example of an elected official who 
understands the needs of his community. The mission for his department 
is to promote safety in the community by enforcing court orders, 
supporting early intervention activities, and to work together with 
neighboring law enforcement agencies.
  Constable Blount is a man who believes in the value of community 
involvement and intervention. Currently he is focusing his department 
on lowering truancy levels and high school dropout rates, reducing 
neighborhood crime, and maintaining clear communication within the 
people in his community.
  Mr. Speaker, I am proud to honor Bexar County Constable Robert 
``Mike'' Blount for his dedication and service to the community.
