                        SALUTING MARK SCHAUERTE

  (Mr. KRISHNAMOORTHI asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mr. KRISHNAMOORTHI. Madam Speaker, I rise to salute my departing 
chief of staff, Mark Schauerte, for his devoted service to my office 
and to my constituents.
  Mark and I have been friends since the third grade, having grown up 
in Peoria, Illinois, and today Mark is one of my most trusted advisers. 
His intelligence, decency, and grit informed every initiative 
undertaken by my office.
  I will miss Mark's daily presence and his warm sense of humor. My 
loss, however, is his family's gain, and I am glad Mark's lovely wife, 
Chris, and his son, Eddie, will now enjoy more of Mark's time.
  Madam Speaker, I thank Mark for his dedicated, stalwart public 
service, and I thank him for his friendship of more than 40 years. I 
wish Mark great success in this new chapter of his life.
