                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, December 6, 2018

  Mr. ROYCE of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my 
gratitude to Hunter Strupp, who has worked in my office since 2005. 
Hunter has excelled in various staff positions: he faithfully served in 
my personal office; as a staff member on the Terrorism, 
Nonproliferation, and Trade Subcommittee; on the House Foreign Affairs 
Committee; and most recently, as Staff Director for the Subcommittee on 
Asia and the Pacific, chaired by Chairman Ted Yoho.
  During his service to the Committee, Hunter was an invaluable asset 
in crafting Committee policy on North Korea, culminating in the passage 
of ground-breaking sanctions legislation. He has been a key advisor on 
a wide range of policy issues confronting the Asian continent, from 
human rights in Vietnam, political crackdowns in Cambodia, and the 
plight of the Rohingya in Burma. He served as my staff member when I 
chaired the Congressional Caucus on India, and the Korea Caucus, 
successfully advancing important policy issues facing each partnership. 
Hunter is a deeply dedicated, determined, and principled foreign 
affairs professional.
  I again want to thank Hunter for his 13 years of service and for his 
valuable counsel. He will no doubt contribute to our nation's well-
being and security for years to come.
