                       Thursday, December 6, 2007

  Ms. SOLIS. Madam Speaker, today I rise to recognize Dean Aguillen, an 
intelligent individual who has been on Speaker Pelosi's staff since 
2002. Originally from San Antonio, Texas, he most recently served as a 
Senior Adviser and Director of Member Services in the Speaker's office. 
Dean's hard work, dedication, and skills are the reasons why he was so 
respected by his colleagues and Members.
  I had the pleasure of knowing Dean over the last several years. Dean 
attended the weekly Congressional Hispanic Caucus, CHC, luncheons to 
give our caucus a House update and he proved to always be responsive to 
our needs. He was a valuable player in the Speaker's office and he 
represented her well before the CHC. He has made a lasting impression 
on the CHC and I commend Dean for his commitment to this country and to 
the Latino community
  While I am sad to see Dean leave, I am confident that the future will 
bring him much success. I wish Dean good health and the best of luck in 
all of his future endeavors. Buena suerte Dean.
