                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. MICHAEL A. RULLI

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, January 21, 2025

  Mr. RULLI. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Ms. Dawn Baker for her 
service in my office and to the people of the Ohio Sixth District. For 
seven years. Ms. Baker has dedicated herself to the aid of my 
constituents and I am proud to have witnessed the positive impact her 
work has created.
  Dawn began her journey of public service at Muskingum University in 
New Concord, Ohio where she earned her Bachelor of Arts degree in 
Political Science and Government. While attending university, she met 
her husband of 24 years and the father of their two exceptional 
daughters, Jason Baker. She dedicated herself fully to her family, 
taking an active role in her children's education and their passion for 
athletics. In 2017, she decided to put her degree to use as an advocate 
for the people of Ohio within the office of former Congressman Bill 
Johnson.
  Under the administration of my predecessor, Dawn began her federal 
career as a Field Representative and caseworker. Being a delegate for 
OH-06, she took great pride in going out in public and listening to the 
needs of the people. She worked diligently and, within a few short 
years, was promoted to Director of Outreach; mentoring those under her 
tutelage in all aspects of championing the residents of our district.
  I have known Dawn and her family both personally and professionally 
for many years, so upon my election to this esteemed office, I was 
pleased to make her my Director of Constituent Services. In this role, 
Dawn has been on the front lines of my office answering calls to assist 
my constituents. She saw firsthand the struggles many in East and 
Southeast Ohio face and has never wavered in her commitment. Dawn's 
strength is one of her greatest assets, affording her the will to get 
the job done, but so too is her compassionate spirit as she works 
tireless]y to assist in any way she can.
  As we, the Members of the House of Representatives well know, our 
staff are often the unsung heroes working hard behind the scenes. So, I 
ask you today to assist me in thanking Ms. Dawn Baker for her many 
years of vigorous and dedicated work for the people of Ohio's Sixth 
District and the Nation, and I wish her the best in her next endeavor.
