  Ms. STEFANIK. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the exemplary 
service of Marine Corps veteran and Montgomery County District Attorney 
Lance Corporal Lorraine Diamond.
  After serving in the U.S. Marine Corps from 1992 to 1994, LCpl 
Diamond excelled academically, earning Bachelor's Degrees in Business 
Administration and Accounting and a Master of Business Administration 
from Mount Saint Mary College. LCpl Diamond also attained her Juris 
Doctorate at the Elisabeth Haub Law School at Pace University, where 
she was the Editor-in-Chief of the Pace Law Review.
  LCpl Diamond began her legal career working for Ernst & Young, LLP as 
a State and Local Tax Consultant in the Tri-State Area of New York, New 
Jersey and Connecticut. Her initial work in law earned her the favor 
and respect of the legal community in the region.
  LCpl Diamond relocated to the North Country in 2007 to serve as the 
Senior Legal Counsel to the Department of Social Services in Fulton 
County. After 5 years in Fulton County, LCpl Diamond became an 
Assistant Public Defender in neighboring Montgomery County, later 
taking the office of Assistant District Attorney in 2017.
  In January 2021, LCpl Diamond was sworn in as the District Attorney 
of Montgomery County following her successful election bid in 2020. 
Since then, she has served honorably in the position and upheld the law 
in her duties as DA.
  On behalf of New York's 21st District, I am honored to recognize 
Montgomery County District Attorney Lance Corporal Lorraine Diamond's 
esteemed career of integrity, courage, and commitment to our country 
and to the rule of law.
