                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. SUZAN K. DelBENE

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 29, 2024

  Ms. DelBENE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Cecily Hahn for three 
and a half years of invaluable service to my office and my constituents 
in Washington's 1st Congressional District. Cecily joined my office in 
January 2021, and as a former resident of the 1st Congressional 
District, she brought a much-needed and valuable perspective on the 
issues that matter the most to our communities. She worked tirelessly 
throughout the pandemic to support and address the unique challenges 
experienced by the exclave community of Point Roberts and other 
communities along our Northern Border. Through her persistence, the 
House passed legislation to add Mount Vernon as a federal court 
location in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of 
Washington. She has also been a fearless champion of advancing strong 
privacy legislation, and has elevated the profile of the XR Caucus 
within the House of Representatives. In addition to her advancement of 
my legislative priorities, Cecily has served as a wonderful mentor to 
others on my staff and helped them grow and advance in their own 
careers.
  Cecily brought a great work ethic, strong Washingtonian spirit, and 
exemplary legal knowledge to the role. Over her tenure, we have learned 
about all things Taylor Swift and F1, and her impact on our office will 
be long lived. She built lasting relationships with my team and those 
who had the pleasure of getting to know her. Cecily has been an amazing 
staffer and a wonderful friend to all in the office, and we will all 
sorely miss her.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Cecily Hahn 
and wishing her the best in all of her future endeavors.
