CELEBRATING OFFICER JOHN SALB
(Mr. CRAWFORD asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. CRAWFORD. Mr. Speaker, today I celebrate the storied career of
Officer John Salb, who will be retiring today after proudly serving the
Capitol Police for over 30 years.
Officer Salb first joined the Capitol Police in 1993 when he was
hired as a security aide, before being hired as a full-time officer the
following year. Working in Capitol Divisions 2 and 3, Officer Salb has
protected this Capitol and its millions of visitors and workers with
honor. After 30 years, he likely has enough stories to fill this House
Chamber. A number of those include his brother, William, as the two
served together from 1994 until 2008.
In 2011, John made his way down to the House Intelligence Committee,
where he spent every day for the last 14 years securing our Members and
staff. For over a decade, John has been a valuable asset to our
intelligence team, not only providing security but also serving as the
committee expert on all things Capitals and Commanders.
While everyone at Intel will miss our friend, we wish him the best as
he embarks on his next great journey. May John enjoy his retirement.
