                        Wednesday, May 13, 2015

  Mr. TED LIEU of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor 
Jeffrey Bujer.
  Jeffrey Bujer is the current Chief Executive Officer of Saban 
Community Clinic. He began working for Saban Community Clinic in 1998, 
when it was known as the Los Angeles Free Clinic. He joined the 
organization as its Chief Financial Officer and moved into a co-CEO 
role before becoming the sole Chief Executive Officer in 2012.
  Under his leadership, Saban Community Clinic has greatly evolved in 
its structure and brand. It has moved from a free clinic structure to a 
Federally Qualified Health Center and has grown from a staff of 62 
serving 9,000 patients each year to a staff of over 200 serving 20,000 
patients each year. The Clinic has expanded its services to include 
both primary care and mental health treatment. Jeffrey led the Clinic 
in expanding to three locations in Los Angeles and implementing an 
electronic health record system. In 2007, Jeffrey oversaw the capital 
campaign that raised $17 million in honor of Saban Community Clinic's 
40th anniversary.
  Jeffrey has touched countless lives in his leadership role and will 
be missed by all when he leaves his position this year. His passion for 
serving others and commitment to health care for all is an inspiration. 
Our community owes a debt of gratitude to Jeffrey Bujer for his hard 
work and dedication.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Jeffrey Bujer and 
wishing him well for the future.
