                       Thursday, February 2, 2023

  Mr. COLE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today out of gratitude to my wonderful 
Director of Strategic Communications, Sarah Corley. Sarah, an Oklahoma 
girl, born and raised in Oklahoma City, is an alumna of Oklahoma 
Baptist University where she graduated with a double major in Finance 
and Marketing.
  Sarah has worked in my Congressional office in Washington, D.C. on 
two separate occasions. She served diligently as my Press Secretary 
from 2013 to 2016. Then she went off to spread her wings at the 
Phillips Collection as Media Relations manager and as Press Secretary 
at the House Budget Committee under my dear friend and former 
colleague, Chairman Dianne Black. In 2018, my staff and I were lucky to 
welcome Sarah back for a second time to again lead my press office and 
lead the Republican communications efforts for me at the House Rules 
Committee beginning in 2019.
  Sarah's sharp insights, incredible talent, and natural curiosity make 
her a triple threat in a world in need of more people with quality 
traits. Sarah has a passion for art, fashion, traveling the world and 
service to others. In fact, she has been an active member of the 
Washington, D.C. Chapter of the Junior League during her time here. She 
also recently completed a certificate in Professional

  Sarah's contributions to my office and my success in serving the 
Fourth District of Oklahoma and the Rules Committee have been 
invaluable as an experienced communicator with a wealth of knowledge 
and insight. I will forever cherish and have gratitude for her 
guidance, creativeness and counsel.
  Mr. Speaker, after 11 years in Washington, D.C., Sarah is moving on 
and moving back to Oklahoma for now. I know she has family and friends 
in Oklahoma to welcome her home and she will excel in amazing ways in 
everything she sets her mind on. I hope she always remembers she has 
friends in Washington, D.C. as well. I am excited to see what she will 
accomplish next.
