                          HONORING KRIS HANSEN

  (Mr. ROSENDALE asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. ROSENDALE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of Kris 
Hansen, a great Montanan and a dear friend who passed away just last 
week.
  Kris was a mighty warrior who loved her country and embodied the 
highest ideals of public service in the State of Montana.
  She served overseas with both the National Guard and the CIA, 
followed by an exceptional tenure with the Montana State legislature, 
alongside me in the Montana State Auditor's office, and most recently 
as Lieutenant Attorney General.
  She was a blessing and a light upon all the lives that she touched.
  Kris was also a strong advocate for students and families. She used 
her gifts to fight for access to quality education for children across 
the State of Montana.
  Her commitment to protecting and preserving our way of life will 
always be a defining pillar of her legacy.
  I am so thankful to have worked with Kris and developed a special 
friendship with her.
  Our thoughts and prayers are with Fred and Nancy and the Hansen 
family during this most difficult time.
