                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. MARCUS J. MOLINARO

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, January 9, 2024

  Mr. MOLINARO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the career of Paul 
Czajka. the six-term District Attorney of Columbia County, New York. 
Paul is retiring after 35 years in elected office in service to the 
Columbia County community.
  Paul was first elected as Columbia County District Attorney in 1988, 
serving until 1994, when he then became a county court judge. In 2011, 
he left the bench and again ran for Columbia County District Attorney, 
reclaiming his old office in 2012 and serving until present. Paul's 
time in public service has been characterized by integrity, competence, 
and commitment to the people of Columbia County and his contributions 
will not be forgotten. I wish him nothing but the best in his 
retirement.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues in the House join me in 
recognizing the career of Columbia County District Attorney Paul 
Czajka, a hardworking and dedicated public servant with an unwavering 
commitment to justice and keeping Upstate New Yorkers safe.
