        RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF AMBASSADOR DAVID M. FRIEDMAN

  (Mr. HILL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. HILL. Madam Speaker, I rise today to give thanks for the service 
of David M. Friedman, recently our Ambassador from the United States to 
Israel.
  As Ambassador, Mr. Friedman strengthened our bond with Israel, took 
our partnership to new heights, secured peaceful relationships for 
Israel in the Middle East, and was influential in moving the U.S. 
Embassy to Jerusalem.
  Through his diligent work, Mr. Friedman set in motion the peaceful 
resolution of Israel-Arab conflicts. His hard work and service set the 
standard for building U.S. diplomatic relationships, and earned him a 
well-deserved nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize.
  I would like to thank Ambassador Friedman for his service, and wish 
him success in his future endeavors.
