  (Mr. CARTER of Georgia asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Kevin 
Jones, who retired as Brunswick police chief after an exceptional 30-
year career in law enforcement.
  His dedication to service has had a lasting impact on the community. 
Chief Jones served as Brunswick's police chief since February of 2019, 
focusing on modernizing policing practices, enhancing officer training, 
and improving public safety efforts.
  His leadership emphasized transparency, accountability, and community 
trust, earning respect from citizens and city officials alike. Under 
his guidance, Brunswick experienced a significant reduction in crime, a 
revitalization of neighborhood watch programs, and improved police-
community relations.
  His dedication made Brunswick a safer place to live, strengthened 
ties between the community and law enforcement, and increased 
confidence in the department. Chief Jones announced his retirement in 
October of 2024, ensuring a smooth leadership transition for the 
department.
  He has mentored many officers, ensuring the next generation of 
leaders is ready to step up. Chief Jones leaves behind a legacy of 
integrity, leadership, and service that will continue to inspire the 
community for many years to come.
