TRIBUTE TO IAN JANNETTA
Mr. VAN HOLLEN. Madam President, I wish to recognize an excellent
[[Page S8015]]
former member of my staff, Ian Jannetta, who is leaving Capitol Hill
after 8 years of service. Having worked for his home State Senator
Casey of Pennsylvania, on the Joint Economic Committee, as part of my
team in both the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate, and
finally with Senator Heitkamp of North Dakota, Ian has many friends on
Capitol Hill and will be missed.
During his time in my office, Ian never hesitated to roll up his
sleeves and get the job done. He worked tirelessly on issues ranging
from providing equal rights for all people, protecting our environment
and the Chesapeake Bay, to building an economy that works for all
Americans. His strong communications skills, coupled with his kindness,
calm presence, and sense of humor, served my team and the people of
Maryland well for over 4 years.
As Ian tackles his next project at the Washington Metropolitan Area
Transit Authority, he continues his commitment to public service, a
proud tradition set by his mother Heather and his father David, who
both started their careers in the U.S. Air Force and continued their
service in State government. I know he will make a tremendous impact. I
join his many colleagues, friends, and family to wish him well, and I
look forward to hearing about the extraordinary work he does next.
