                         Tuesday, June 10, 2025

  Ms. ELFRETH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Eric Amick as he 
prepares for retirement after more than 23 years of service to the U.S. 
House of Representatives.
  Eric was born in Cumberland, Maryland. In 1976, he graduated from 
Bishop Walsh High School. After high school, Eric attended Purdue 
University in West Lafayette, Indiana, where in 1980, he earned a 
bachelor's degree in computer science.
  After college, Eric worked as a software engineer for S3 
Technologies, NeuraITech, and Banktech.
  In August 2002, Eric joined the Legislative Computer Systems, a 
division of the Office of the Clerk, as a software engineer. During his 
tenure, Eric worked on numerous mission critical applications, 
including the Electronic Voting System (EVS), the xMetaL, Member 
Information System (MIS), and most recently the Legislative Information 
Management system (LIMS). Eric's expertise in House documents and 
legislative data has been critical to many of the behind-the-scenes 
legislative activities that help this institution run smoothly.
  Eric has dedicated 23 years of his professional career to the Office 
of the Clerk. He has worked under six Speakers of the House: the 
Honorables J. Dennis Hastert, Nancy Pelosi, John A. Boehner, Paul D. 
Ryan, Kevin McCarthy, and now, Mike Johnson.
  In addition, Eric has worked for five Clerks of the House: the 
Honorables Jeff Trandahl, Karen L. Haas, Lorraine C. Miller, Cheryl L. 
Johnson, and Kevin F. McCumber.
  Post retirement, Eric is looking forward to his next chapter of 
adventures. He plans to spend more time with his lifelong hobby, which 
includes trivia, crossword puzzles, and board games.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the U.S. House of Representatives, I want 
to thank Eric Amick for his wonderful service to this institution.
