                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, May 26, 2020

  Mr. RYAN. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Jeanette Mauk, who 
is retiring on June 5, 2020 after 25 years working tirelessly in the 
labor movement.
  Over the past 13 years at the Ohio AFL-CIO, Jeanette always fought 
for her members and the hardworking men and women of Ohio. She knows 
that strong labor is essential to our nation's economic success and to 
our ability to raise wages and provide family-supporting jobs.
  Back in 2018, Jeanette was awarded the Union Sportsmen's Alliance 
Conservation Steward of the Year. This award recognizes volunteers from 
each of the USA's charter unions who have made exceptional 
contributions to organize union volunteers to donate their time and 
unique trade skills in the preservation of North America's outdoor 
heritage.
  Even with well-deserved accolades, Jeanette knew the real rewards of 
being involved in the labor movement were giving back to our 
communities, fostering solidarity among union members, and building 
bridges between unions and the public.
  I thank Jeannette for standing shoulder to shoulder with us in our 
fight for strong organized labor. Her work has not gone unnoticed. All 
my best to her in her next chapter.
