  Mr. CROW. Mr Speaker, I rise today to recognize Adams County 
Commissioner Charles ``Chaz'' Tedesco for his service to Colorado. 
Commissioner Tedesco began his service by serving in the U.S. Navy, and 
as President of the United Steelworkers Union.
  Commissioner Tedesco supported several initiatives to help vulnerable 
youth during his term, including Homes for Hope, a program for youth in 
emergency foster care in Adams County. He also served as Vice-Chair of 
the Former Foster Care Youth Steering Committee for the State of 
Colorado.
  Commissioner Tedesco is a member of diverse boards and committees as 
he serves Adams County residents and all Coloradans, including the E-
470 Authority, Airport Coordinating Committee, Aurora Economic 
Development Board of Directors, Veterans Advisory Commission, 
Aerotropolis Regional Transit Authority, Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, 
Colorado Counties, Inc., County & Commissioners Acting Together, Child 
Welfare Allocation Committee, Metro Area County Commissioners, and 
National Association of Counties.
  Commissioner Tedesco has been a consistent advocate for veterans and 
a voice for funding state and federal veterans' programs. He was 
integral in the formation of the Veterans Advisory Commission which 
seeks to address and work cooperatively with other county boards, 
councils, and staff regarding veterans' interests.
  I thank Commissioner Tedesco for his service to our community as the 
Commissioner for District 2 on the Adams County Board of Commissioners.
