                        Thursday, July 13, 2023

  Mr. BARR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life of a special 
man, Mr. Caleb Conley. Mr. Conley served as a Sheriff's Deputy in Scott 
County, Kentucky. On Monday, May 22, 2023, Conley was shot and killed 
in the line of duty during a traffic stop. He was 35 years of age.
  Deputy Conley served our nation in the United States Army for 8 
years. He served in the 478th Engineer Battalion. He served in Iraq and 
was among a group that executed more than 1,600 combat missions and was 
credited with locating 164 improvised explosive devices. Following his 
time in the military, Conley began a career in law enforcement. He won 
multiple awards for his law enforcement service and was especially 
known for his enforcement of impaired driving. In 2022, Conley was 
named Scott County Deputy of the Year. The award has since been renamed 
in his honor.
  Deputy Conley loved serving others and he loved being a law 
enforcement officer. He was a dedicated family man and a true friend to 
many. Conley was a dedicated volunteer in many community activities. He 
is survived by his wife Rachel, their 2 children Riley and Olivia, and 
his parents William and Jolene Conley.
  Caleb Conley was a man of strong character and a true patriot who 
loved his country. He was a dedicated law enforcement officer who paid 
the ultimate sacrifice to keep his community safe. He deserves our 
unending respect and gratitude. May we always remember the life of 
Caleb Conley. I am humbled to honor him before the United States 
Congress.
