              RECOGNIZING THE HONORABLE ALGENON L. MARBLEY

  (Mrs. BEATTY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. BEATTY. Madam Speaker, I rise today in honor of the 
distinguished service of the Honorable Algenon L. Marbley from my 
district, who has served the Southern District of Ohio since 1997 after 
his appointment by President Clinton and unanimous confirmation by the 
United States Senate.
  In 2019, Judge Marbley became the first Black American to serve as 
chief district judge for the Southern District of Ohio.
  Under his leadership, the court remained one of the Nation's most 
productive, even through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. In 
2023, the district was ranked in the top 15 most productive Federal 
district courts, and his dedication to justice is unparalleled.
  As Chief Judge Marbley celebrates his 70th birthday and concludes his 
tenure, I extend my deepest gratitude and friendship for his service 
and wish him the best as he serves as a senior Federal judge.
