  Ms. STEFANIK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Jennie Adsit on 
the occasion of her retirement from the Jefferson County Board of 
Legislators.
  Jennie was first elected to the County Board of Supervisors in 1977. 
She has served on the board of legislators since its inception in 1996 
until 1999 and then from 2006 to the present. During her tenure on the 
board, she has served as the Chair of the Finance and Rules Committee 
from 1996 through 1997 and served on the committee a total of sixteen 
years. Additionally, she served as the Chair of the Health and Human 
Services Committee between 2002 and 2003 and has served on that 
committee since 2006. She has also been a member of the Planning and 
Development Committee and is currently a member of the General Services 
Committee. In all of these roles, Jennie has consistently worked to 
better the lives of her fellow residents of Jefferson County.
  On behalf of New York's 21st Congressional District, I want to thank 
Jennie for her lifetime of dedicated public service. She has made a 
lasting positive impact on Jefferson County

and the North Country as a whole. I wish her well on this next chapter 
in her life.
