               CONGRATULATING RON WILES ON HIS RETIREMENT

  (Mr. KILDEE asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. KILDEE. Madam Speaker, today I rise to honor Grand Blanc Township 
chief of police Ron Wiles as he retires after 26 years of service on 
the police force.
  In his quarter century serving Grand Blanc Township, Chief Wiles has 
been an incredible champion for community policing, bringing law 
enforcement and the community together keeping mid-Michigan residents 
safe from crime.
  Chief Wiles is an important member of the Genesee County Advocates 
and Leaders for Police and Community Trust, or ALPACT, a forum where 
community leaders and law enforcement come together to develop public 
safety solutions for crime.
  Chief Wiles is also well-recognized as a figure across Michigan law 
enforcement. Recently, he completed an outstanding term as president of 
the Michigan Association of Chiefs of Police.
  Chief Wiles has also served on the Governor's Traffic Safety Advisory 
Commission; and in March, Chief Wiles was appointed by Governor Whitmer 
to serve on the Michigan Commission on Law Enforcement Standards where 
he will continue working to better the law enforcement profession and 
keep Michiganians safe.
  I personally thank Chief Wiles for his service to our community, for 
our work together on behalf of mid-Michigan. Grand Blanc Township has 
been blessed by his presence, and I congratulate him on his retirement.
