         HONORING THE LIFE AND SERVICE OF SAYED OBAIDULLAH AMIN

  (Mrs. KIM of California asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mrs. KIM of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sayed 
Obaidullah Amin, who served heroically in Afghanistan and risked his 
life as a translator for U.S. forces in Sangan Valley.
  Sayed had a pending SIV, P1, and P2 application to get to the United 
States. He had the help of marines who he served with, as well as the 
help of my office. Unfortunately, he and his wife were killed at Abbey 
Gate during the Kabul airport attack fighting to get to safety. Their 
two infant children survived, and they are P1, P2 applicants, and they 
need the help of our State Department to get to safety.
  My heart continues to be with his children, the marines he served 
with, and all those who worked so hard to get him to safety. Our 
mission is not over. We have lives to save.
