                      Wednesday, September 9, 2009

  Mr. HALL of Texas. Madam Speaker, I want to thank a member of my 
staff who is leaving us to move back to ``our'' home state of Texas. 
After earning a degree in Psychology from Texas A&M University, Chase 
Simmons came to Washington and spent the last 4 years here on Capitol 
Hill. He served as a Senior Staff Assistant for the Committee on Energy 
and Commerce and joined the Committee on Science and Technology in 2007 
as our Committee Clerk. Chase first came to Capitol Hill in 2005 
serving as an intern in my office.
  Chase has worked hard to help me serve the people of the 4th District 
of Texas and assisted the Members of Congress serving on the Committee 
on Science and Technology.
  I thank him for his efforts and wish him well in the future.
