              HONORING THE LIFE OF TROOPER JOSEPH BULLOCK

  (Mr. MAST asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MAST. Madam Speaker, I speak to honor the life of Trooper Joseph 
Bullock, whose watch ended on the morning of February 5, 2020, when 
fatally shot in the line of duty.
  Trooper Bullock's life was devoted to protecting those he had never 
met, in the Air Force and the Florida Highway Patrol for 19 years, and 
he paid dearly that others would be safe.
  There are no words or actions that can repay the debt we each owe 
heroes like Trooper Bullock. It would be fruitless for me to attempt 
words to remove grief from his family or fellow troopers.
  I can only offer from our Nation the most ardent thanks for sharing 
him as a protector and pray to our Father in Heaven that every thought 
of him is a cherished memory and pride that he was a man who laid down 
his life for others.
