                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 17, 2014

  Mr. CONNOLLY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an outstanding 
group of men and women in Northern Virginia. These individuals have 
demonstrated superior dedication to public safety and have been awarded 
the prestigious Valor Award by the Prince William County Chamber of 
Commerce.
  The Valor Awards recognize remarkable heroism and bravery in the line 
of duty exemplified by our public safety agencies and their commitment 
to the community. Our public safety and law enforcement personnel put 
their lives on the line every day to keep our families and 
neighborhoods safe. This year's ceremony will recognize 25 individuals, 
one investigative team, and one Operational Task Force in a variety of 
categories including, the Silver or Bronze Valor Award, the Merit Valor 
Award, and the Investigative Merit Award.
  Two members of the City of Manassas Police Department are being 
honored this year for their exceptional service. It is with great pride 
that I submit the names of the following award recipients:

       2014 Merit Valor Award: Officer Trey Cram and Police 
     Officer First Class Brett Stumpf.

  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the 2014 Valor Award Recipients, and 
thank each of the men and women who served in the City of Manassas 
Police Department. Their efforts, made on behalf of citizens of Prince 
William County, are selfless acts of heroism and truly merit our 
highest praise. I ask my colleagues to join me in applauding this group 
of remarkable citizens.
