                        Monday, January 30, 2023

  Ms. CRAIG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank and congratulate Will 
Mitchell for 4 years and 2 Congresses as my Legislative Director.
  Will has been a dedicated public servant and legislative staffer to 
the state of Minnesota for a decade now, previously serving for 
Congressman Rick Nolan for Will's own hometown district and Duluth, 
Minnesota.
  His expertise on energy and environmental policy helped us enact the 
Local Water Protection Act during the 117th Congress. He has been 
instrumental in forming my office as a first-term Member to now a 
returning Member of the Energy and Commerce Committee. Not only that, 
Will has been a jack of all trades, working in areas of Agriculture, 
Transportation and Infrastructure, Tax, Financial Services and so many 
different policies.
  I am grateful for Will's tireless advocacy for local communities in 
my district, spearheading our offices efforts to secure over $40 
million in funding for Community Projects. He helped navigate my 
legislative portfolio through the pandemic, but also constantly stay on 
top of the issues impacting working families in Minnesota's Second 
District.
  It has also been a joy watching Will and Sacha's family grow--with 2 
young boys, Cal and Charlie, joining us all during his time in my 
office.
  I've appreciated Will's advice and counsel over the years and wish 
him the best in his new adventure off the Hill.
