                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 1, 2021

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Daniel 
Chase, Chief of Staff at the Colorado Department of Labor and 
Employment (CDLE) for his dedication and service to the people of the 
State of Colorado. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Daniel went above 
and beyond to engage, educate and inform the community about 
unemployment benefits, including by participating in many Telephone 
Town Halls with my office and thousands of my constituents.
  Under Governor Hickenlooper's office, Daniel served as a Citizen's 
Advocate and then was brought on by CDLE as a Special Assistant to the 
Executive Director. In his time at the department, he has held many 
roles and now serves as the Chief of Staff in the Executive Director's 
office. During our Telephone Town Halls, Daniel provided timely updates 
and answered constituent questions about unemployment benefit programs 
related to the COVID-19 pandemic in Colorado.
  It is because of local heroes like Daniel that our state has been 
able to support individuals and families during this unprecedented 
time. I thank Daniel Chase for his service and sacrifice during this 
difficult time, and I look forward to continuing to work with him as we 
work to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic.
