  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Lesley Dahlkemper for her outstanding service to education and our 
community.
  As the current Vice President of Strategic Engagement and 
Communications for the Colorado Education Initiative, Lesley has an 
exemplary passion for public education and has made a huge impact in 
her field. Her experience spans from the Jefferson County Board of 
Education to award-winning national reporting for National Public 
Radio. Lesley brings her experience in public policy, politics and 
journalism to support the Jefferson County community.
  Outside of her professional experience, she provides her time to many 
non-profits including the Action Center, CASA of Jefferson and Gilpin 
Counties and Colorado I Have A Dream Foundation. Lesley's leadership 
has impacted Jefferson County for the better.
  I extend my deepest congratulations to Lesley Dahlkemper for her 
well-deserved honor by the West Chamber serving Jefferson County. I 
have no doubt she will exhibit the same dedication and character in all 
her future accomplishments.
