  Mr. HENSARLING. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Chief Ron 
Shields of the Brownsboro Police Department and recognize his 
exceptional service and contributions to his country, the State of 
Texas and his community.
  His exemplary career in law enforcement has touched communities 
throughout Texas. As an instructor with the East Texas Police Academy 
at Kilgore College, Chief Shields has helped train more than 500 peace 
officers. Chief Shields represents public service in the highest 
regard.
  Before his career in law enforcement, Chief Shields served his 
country honorably as a member of the Army National Guard.
  As the Congressman for the Fifth District of Texas, I am honored to 
recognize Chief Ron Shields for his many years of public service and 
innumerable contributions to his country, state and community. Chief, 
on behalf of all the constituents of the Fifth District, I would like 
to extend our most sincere thanks.
