                        Thursday, March 1, 2012

  Mr. AUSTRIA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today on behalf of the people of 
Ohio's Seventh Congressional District to recognize William F. Schenck 
for his outstanding career as a prosecuting attorney and his efforts of 
upholding justice in the Greene County Community and the nation.
  Bill earned his Juris Doctor from The Ohio State University and 
shortly after began his career in the Greene County prosecutor's 
office. Elected to the position of Prosecuting Attorney seven times, 
Bill honorably served the citizens of Greene County for over 25 years. 
During his time as the county's prosecuting attorney, Bill prosecuted 
over 50,000 felonies and brought justice to numerous victims.
  After his time in the Greene County prosecutor's office, Bill served 
as the Assistant United States Attorney at Department of Justice in the 
U.S. Attorney's Office for over five years. During this time, Bill 
prosecuted felons involved in organized crime.
  Bill has shown himself to be a dedicated and hardworking member of 
the Greene County community and the state of Ohio. Throughout his 
service, he has been an advocate for victims' rights and has worked 
tirelessly for justice.
  Thus, it is with great pride, I congratulate William F. Schenck for 
his commendable service in protecting the Miami Valley, the state of 
Ohio, and the United States. I join the people of Ohio's Seventh 
Congressional District in extending best wishes upon his retirement 
from the U.S. Attorney's Office and success in all future endeavors.
