                  HONORING THE CAREER OF ROBERT LARSON

  (Mr. NEWHOUSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. NEWHOUSE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor the career of one 
of my constituents, Robert Larson, and congratulate him on his 
retirement.
  For 27 years, Bob served as commissioner of the Port of Benton and 
has dedicated himself to serving his neighbors and his community.
  Thanks to Bob's efforts, the U.S. Navy and the Port of Benton were 
able to partner to bring a section of the USS Triton submarine to 
Richland in honor of veterans who served in Navy submarines.
  From strengthening local supply chains to preserving the history of 
the Hanford Site and so much more, Bob's contributions to the Port of 
Benton, the greater Tri-Cities, the State of Washington, and our 
country are a true testament to his spirit of service.
  As a lifelong Washingtonian, on behalf of the people of the Fourth 
Congressional District, I extend my heartfelt thanks to Bob for his 
decades of public service and wish him all the best in retirement.
