                              HONORING JOHN CROMAN

      (Ms. OMAR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
    minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
      Ms. OMAR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the distinguished career
    of John Croman, an extraordinary member of our community and a
    political reporter.
      John retired from his role as chief political reporter for KARE 11
    after nearly 27 years of dedicated service, bringing Minnesotans
    reliable, informative, and timely political news.
      Those who worked closely with John admired his wealth of knowledge
    about Minnesota politics and history and refer to him as the contact,
    and the context, for every story.
      John was praised for his commitment to reporting on policy over
    fleeting trends of the moment and also for his tireless commitment for
    reporting the truth. He also brought joy to his colleagues and injected
    it into his work every single day.
      We will miss his reporting and wish him well in his retirement.
