            CONGRATULATING TROOPER ROBERT ``BOBBY'' HAYSLIP

  (Mrs. SCHMIDT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. SCHMIDT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Trooper 
Robert ``Bobby'' Hayslip of West Union, Ohio, for being awarded the 
Ohio State Highway Patrol's Trooper of the Year Award.
  Trooper Bobby Hayslip was commissioned a State Trooper only 6 years 
ago as part of the 138th academy class and has quickly risen to the 
top. Bobby's District Commander, Captain Daniel Kolcum, best describes 
him as being hardworking and aggressive but also compassionate and 
professional.
  Trooper Hayslip is known for being a leader in making both 
enforcement and non-enforcement contacts; he is constantly working to 
keep Ohioans safe through investigations, assisting motorists, and 
getting drunk and impaired drivers off Ohio's roads. The dedication of 
Trooper Hayslip does not end after his shift. It continues in his free 
time as a volunteer working with local juvenile traffic offenders and 
at-risk high school students.
  Mr. Speaker, I am very thankful that the best trooper in the State of 
Ohio is patrolling Ohio's Second Congressional District.
  Congratulations, Bobby, and continued success in years to come.
