                  HONORING THE CAREER OF JAMES RAEBEL

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. DAN NEWHOUSE

                             of washington

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, January 19, 2022

  Mr. NEWHOUSE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to express my sincere 
gratitude, and the gratitude of all Central Washingtonians, to 
Detective Sergeant James A. Raebel, and to congratulate him on his 
well-deserved retirement.
  During his more than forty years of service with the Pasco Police 
Department, Det. Sgt. Raebel has truly embodied what it means to 
``serve and protect'', working as a K-9 handler, an undercover 
narcotics officer, a detective, and a sergeant. Because of his work, 
the Pasco community truly was safer.
  Without dedicated public servants like Det. Sgt. Raebel, our 
Republic, which is sustained by a system of law and order, and our very 
way of life could not endure.
  I wish Det. Sgt. Raebel the very best as he enters this next chapter 
of his life. I commend him on a lifetime of service to his friends, 
family, and neighbors, and on behalf of all Central Washingtonians, I 
thank him for his service.
