                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 3, 2023

  Mr. HIGGINS of New York. Mr. Speaker, today I am honored to recognize 
Rebecca Murphy, a dependable and intrepid leader in academia, the 
public sector, and the private sector. She has devoted her career to 
ensuring that all government and non-government leaders are educated on 
the consequences of international political affairs and risk.
  After earning her bachelor's and master's degrees at the University 
of Toronto, she would later earn her Ph.D. in International Relations 
from Columbia University. Through work with the Government of Canada, 
her former role of Vice President of Global Security at JPMorgan Chase, 
and her former role as a lecturer at Columbia University, Rebecca is 
rightfully regarded as one of the world's brightest geopolitical 
analysts and has been an incredible asset to every organization for 
which she has worked. Currently, Rebecca serves as the Senior Vice 
President, Geopolitical Risk and Analysis at Fiserv, and is an Adjunct 
Professor in the Elliott School of International Affairs at George 
Washington University. These roles offer her the opportunity to be an 
advisor to business leaders and students, alike, on the ramifications 
of geopolitical and socioeconomic developments. Her leadership in 
research and sensibility to the importance of international policy make 
Rebecca's counsel highly coveted. In an ever-shifting

global landscape, Rebecca brings a heightened level of professionalism 
and acumen to all her efforts.
  Just recently, Rebecca became a citizen of the United States. She can 
now call America her home, and surely, our Nation will be more 
prosperous because of it. People like Rebecca--those who are devoted to 
hard work and strive for expertise in their field--continue to make the 
future of the United States uniquely promising. It is my sincere 
privilege to congratulate Rebecca Murphy on this recent achievement, 
among the myriad of successes that she has enjoyed in her career and 
wish her well in her future endeavors.
