IN RECOGNITION OF TRANSPORTATION SECURITY OFFICERS AT PHOENIX AIRPORT
(Mrs. LESKO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Mrs. LESKO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the
Transportation Security Officers at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport for
their bravery and dedication to their mission to keep our airports
safe.
Last month on June 18, a man rushed a TSA security checkpoint at the
Phoenix Airport, injuring and knocking over several TSOs in the
process. I would like to thank the following TSOs who showed courage in
subduing the attacker, even as he attempted to hurt and push past the
officers:
Donna Potts O'Brien, Cynthia Baker, Christopher Cotton, Sandra
Thompson, Patricia Miller-Davis, Gladys Recinos, Michael Malloy, Melvin
Gorham, Adam Ervin, Kenneth Fetter, Robert Morelos, Michael Wilmoth,
and Roberto Lopez.
I am grateful to these heroic officers and commend their actions to
keep the Phoenix Airport secure.
