                     Wednesday, September 22, 2010

  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, as I did last year, I rise 
today to congratulate and recognize outstanding employees of the 
Officers (Clerk of the House, Sergeant at Arms, and Chief 
Administrative Officer) and Inspector General of the U.S. House of 
Representatives who have reached the milestone of 25 years of service 
to the U.S. House of Representatives.
  Our most important asset in the House is our dedicated employees, and 
their work, often behind the scenes, is vital in keeping the operations 
and services of the House running smoothly and efficiently. The 
employees we recognize today are acknowledged and commended for their 
hard work, dedication, and support of House Members, their staffs and 
constituents, and for their contributions day-in and day-out to the 
overall operations of the House. These employees have a wide range of 
responsibilities that support the legislative process, assure the 
security of the institution, and maintain our technology and service 
infrastructure. They have accomplished a great many things in a wide 
range of activities, and the House of Representatives and its Members, 
staff, and the general public, are better served because of them. The 
individuals we honor today have collectively provided four hundred 
fifty (450) years of service to the U.S. House of Representatives:
  Linda Cain, Office of the Clerk;
  John Clarke, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Corliss Clemonts-James, Office of the Clerk;
  Jodi Detwiler, Office of the Clerk;
  KaSandra R. Greenhow, Office of the Sergeant at Arms;
  Tina Hanonu, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Monroe Holliway, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Dorothy M. Jennings, Office of the Sergeant at Arms;
  Deborah Jones, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Steven Kaeser, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Olga Kornacki, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Mary O'Brien, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Beth Pence, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Robert Ransom, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Sarah Ricanek, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Bruce Roland, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Anthony Scott, Office of the Chief Administrative Officer;
  Linda Rawl Shealy, Office of the Sergeant at Arms.
  On behalf of the entire House community, I extend congratulations and 
once again recognize and thank these employees for their commitment to 
the U.S. House of Representatives as a whole, and to their respective 
House Officers and Inspector General in particular. Their long hours 
and hard work are invaluable, and their years of unwavering service, 
dedication, and commitment to the House set an example for their 
colleagues and other employees who will follow in their footsteps. I 
celebrate our honorees, and I am proud to stand before you and the 
nation on their behalf to recognize the importance of their public 
service.
