                      Thursday, December 14, 2023

  Mr. TAKANO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Taylor Doggett and her 
tremendous work as my Communications Director. In her time in my 
office, she has been an outstanding leader, mentor, and colleague. It 
is with gratitude that I thank her for her work and her talents.
  From day one, Taylor has been dedicated to ensuring that the 
constituents of my district felt connected to my work, both at home and 
in Washington. She developed a streamlined process for expanding and 
managing contact with constituents on the issues that matter most to 
them. Under her leadership, we were able to expand our subscriber base 
significantly and provide accessible channels for the people of the 
39th District to feel connected to their Member of Congress and this 
legislative body.
  Taylor proved to be a strong advocate and valuable voice for our most 
important legislative priorities. She steered our communications team 
through some of our greatest legislative accomplishments, including the 
introduction of the Equality Act and the passage of the Korean Valor 
Act into law. Despite the challenges of being in the minority, her 
innovative vision for our social media stood out. To the members of her 
communications team, she has been a mentor and a model of running an 
effective, relationship-based comms shop.
  Above all, Taylor has been a joyful presence in my office. She is 
cheerful, sharp, and quick-witted, and her jokes often make it to my 
social media pages. She is known for always being good for a laugh or a 
heart-to-heart chat among my staff. Wherever she may go down the road, 
she will always be a member of Team Takano.
  I am enormously grateful to Taylor for her contributions. She will be 
dearly missed, and I wish her luck in her next adventure.
