MARGARET CAVANAUGH HAS BEEN A GODSEND
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from
Minnesota (Mr. Stauber) for 5 minutes.
Mr. STAUBER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to praise the dedication to
service and what it means to be a true public servant by recognizing my
constituent services director and service academy coordinator, Margaret
Cavanaugh.
For nearly three decades, Margaret has served thousands of
Minnesota's citizens, having worked for three different Members of
Congress from the great State of Minnesota.
It is devoted staff like Margaret who work behind the scenes solving
difficult issues for individuals back home, that so many people receive
the help they need from their Federal Government.
Public servants like Margaret are seldom recognized for their
persistent efforts yet are crucial to the deployment of many Federal
programs such as VA and disability benefits, Medicare, Medicaid,
passport issues, and all too often, the IRS and refunds.
Dedicated caseworkers like Margaret are often a godsend to so many
constituents who are often overwhelmed or far too often ignored by our
massive bureaucracies right here in Washington.
Margaret is up there with the best of them, mentoring other
caseworkers in the State and region with advice, contacts, and problem-
solving techniques.
I thank Margaret for all she does for the people of the great State
of Minnesota. With people like her, our constituents get the best
assistance, and they deserve it. Once again, I thank Margaret.
