                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. DEBBIE DINGELL

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, October 23, 2019

  Mrs. DINGELL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Detective 
Sergeant Jason Hohner and congratulate him on receiving The Washtenaw 
100 Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award. Detective Sergeant Jason 
Hohner's selfless dedication to protecting the Washtenaw County 
community is worthy of commendation.
  The Washtenaw 100 is a non-profit organization committed to 
supporting our hometown heroes. The organization's mission is to 
provide immediate financial funding to families of law enforcement and 
firefighting personnel in Washtenaw County who have died in the line of 
duty, helping them through their grief. In addition, the organization 
strives to serve active duty law enforcement officers and firefighters 
by providing grants to local departments and offering annual 
scholarships to their children to bolster their educational 
opportunities.
  The Washtenaw 100's Annual Dinner exemplifies the organization's 
continued dedication to supporting our community's firefighters and law 
enforcement officers and serves as a great way to recognize their 
outstanding efforts. This year, The Washtenaw 100 is proud to recognize 
Detective Sergeant Jason Hohner as the 2019 Law Enforcement Officer of 
the Year.
  Detective Sergeant Jason Hohner is an experienced and valuable member 
of the Pittsfield Police Department. Nominated by Chief Matthew 
Harshberger, Det. Sgt. Hohner is a leader who consistently goes above 
and beyond what is expected of him in his position. Although Det. Sgt. 
Hohner has a host of outstanding accomplishments that make him 
deserving of the Law Enforcement Officer of the Year Award, some of his 
most noteworthy achievements include his leadership in a recent 
homicide investigation that involved over 90 law enforcement personnel 
and his crucial coordination between the Pittsfield Police Department 
and a variety of other agencies to ensure crucial information was not 
left unnoticed. Det. Sgt. Hohner is known amongst his peers as a driven 
problem-solver who humbly strives for excellence without seeking praise 
or recognition for any of his remarkable accomplishments.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Detective 
Sergeant Jason Hohner. His bravery, dedication, and service to the 
citizens of Washtenaw County is deeply appreciated and truly makes a 
difference in our community.
