                        HONORING DR. AL MIJARES

  (Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CORREA. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to honor the career of my 
very good friend, retiring Orange County superintendent Dr. Al Mijares.
  Dr. Mijares was first appointed as Orange County superintendent of 
schools in 2012. Before that he was Santa Ana Unified School District's 
superintendent. Al is a man that truly cares about our children and 
their well-being.
  Dr. Mijares' vision is to ensure that each one of our children is 
prepared to succeed in life.
  I thank Dr. Mijares for his friendship and thank him for caring. I 
thank him for a lifelong career of caring for our children in our 
public school system.
  We as a community are praying for his recovery, and we love him.
