                          HON. RICHARD E. NEAL

                            of massachusetts

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 1, 2019

  Mr. NEAL. Madam Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize Ms. Debbie Jones as she ends her thirty-four-year term of 
having served as a Financial Counselor with the House Chief 
Administrative office. She began her career in the House in May 1985, 
and over the years has done a remarkable job of ensuring the integrity 
of House payment transactions. She proved herself to be a strong and 
thoughtful leader for the Chief Administrative office.
  Debbie graduated from the University of Massachusetts Amherst in 1979 
and retires as a Financial Counselor, where she was responsible for 
reconciling and processing often complex equipment and supply payments 
for House offices. Debbie had a fine record of public service as she 
previously served House Clerk Benjamin Guthrie then transitioned to be 
a Lead Vendor Management Counselor and later Assistant Manager.
  I would like to recognize Debbie for being an invaluable asset to the 
CAO organization, providing excellent customer service to House 
offices. Her good work ethic, eye for detail, and sense of humor have 
endeared her to many colleagues and friends.
  Once again, Madam Speaker, I am proud of Debbie Jones and all she has 
accomplished for Massachusetts and beyond. I wish her well in all her 
future endeavors, following her successful career with the Chief 
Administrative Office.
