                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. ZOE LOFGREN

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, January 2, 2024

  Ms. LOFGREN. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize the many contributions 
of Sherri Sager, SVP and Chief Government Relations Officer at Stanford 
Medicine's Lucile Packard Children's Hospital (LPCH) at Stanford. After 
over 29 years of outstanding service with LPCH, Sherri has retired. Our 
community is grateful to her for her many years of advocacy and 
dedication to making our government's healthcare system work better for 
our most vulnerable patients and their families.
  During her time at LPCH, Sherri organized and managed the government 
relations program, monitored proposed laws and public policy that could 
impact the Hospital, and oversaw the community partnerships and 
volunteer services departments. She served on numerous nonprofit boards 
and statewide task forces and was recognized for her knowledge of 
public policy, especially related to healthcare, organizing ability, 
and political acumen. Sherri believed that we could work to keep kids 
from having to come to the hospital in the first place by investing in 
improving the health of all children in the community.
  Mr. Speaker, it is my pleasure to recognize and commend Sherri Sager 
for her commitment to helping improve healthcare access for low-income 
women and children in our community. Sherri will be missed in her 
retirement, and we wish her the best in this new phase of life.
