  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Sgt. Matt Levan 
of the Sugar Land Police Department for being named the 2014 Officer of 
the Year. This award reflects his exceptional contributions to our 
community and his outstanding civic leadership.
  Sgt. Levan began his service for the Sugar Land Police Department 19 
years ago and continues to display leadership and commitment to his 
job. As a member of the Houston Metro Internet Crimes against Children 
Task Force, he has taken a special interest in the welfare of children 
in Sugar Land. Always going a step further, he makes a practice of 
sharing his experience and insights to empower the public to better 
defend themselves from criminal threats. Thanks to officers like Sgt. 
Levan, residents of Sugar Land can sleep better at night knowing that 
our police officers are dedicated to serving our community and keeping 
us safe.
  I commend Sgt. Levan for his outstanding leadership and service to 
our community at the Sugar Land Police Department. On behalf of the 
residents of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Sgt. Matt Levan on being named the 2014 
Officer of the Year.
