                       Friday, September 28, 2018

  Mr. MARINO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge and thank a 
longtime staffer of mine, Matt Powell, who recently left my office to 
pursue a Master's Degree in Public Health. Matt is a constituent of the 
district I represent, Pennsylvania's 10th Congressional District, 
growing up in Susquehanna County. He attended Forest City High School 
and earned his Bachelor's Degree from Keystone College in Lackawanna 
County. Matt is a born and bred Northeastern Pennsylvanian who decided 
to serve his neighbors and his area by becoming an intern in one of my 
district offices. Matt immediately excelled in his role, and once we 
had an opening in my Washington, D.C. office we brought him on board 
right away. Matt worked in my Washington, D.C. office for over 5 years 
where he eventually became my Senior Legislative Assistant handling an 
array of important policy issues. Matt's passion has always been in 
healthcare policy, and I am pleased to see he is pursuing higher 
education in this field. I thank Matt for his dedicated and hard work 
for the constituents of PA-10, and I wish him the best of luck in any 
of his future endeavors.
