                      MARKING NATIONAL POLICE WEEK

  (Mr. NEHLS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. NEHLS. Mr. Speaker, it is National Police Week. After serving in 
law enforcement for over 30 years, I can think of no better story to 
share today than the story of my family's more than 110 years of law 
enforcement service.
  It all started with my father, Edwin Nehls, who, after returning home 
from Korea as the recipient of the Distinguished Service Cross, began 
serving with the Dodge County Sheriff's Office in the State of 
Wisconsin. He served for over two decades, starting as a traffic deputy 
and eventually working his way to serving as the elected sheriff, a 
position he held for 8 years.
  My older brother Todd Nehls served in the Dodge County Sheriff's 
Office for 34 years, serving more than 10 of those years as the elected 
sheriff.
  And my identical twin brother, Trever Nehls, served in law 
enforcement for over 30 years in Fort Bend County, Texas, starting in 
the early 1990s. He just retired in March of this year after a 
successful career.
  I could not be more proud of my father and brothers' service.
