       RECOGNIZING DANIEL RUBIN AND HIS SERVICE TO THE HOUSE OF 
                            REPRESENTATIVES

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JERROLD NADLER

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, July 10, 2025

  Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Daniel Rubin for his 
outstanding service to the House of Representatives, to the House 
Judiciary Committee, and to the constituents of New York's 12th 
Congressional District.
  Daniel Rubin is an exceptional talent, with years of experience 
working at the highest levels of Congress on the most crucial legal 
issues of the day. He has a razorsharp mind, an inquisitive nature, and 
a unique ability to accurately identify the key question that must be 
addressed in any given situation.
  Daniel Rubin has worked directly on the Judiciary Committee and the 
Ways and Means Committee and has worked with Members who served on the 
Budget, Oversight, and Education and the Workforce committees. It is 
truly rare to find someone with his breadth and depth of experience 
working in the House for as long as Daniel has. That is a testament to 
his commitment to public service and his ability to gain the trust of 
multiple Members of Congress from diverse backgrounds.
  Not all positions on the Hill are equal, and Daniel has had perhaps 
the toughest assignment. He routinely handles the most challenges 
questions put to lawmakers by the Capitol Hill press corps. They are 
trained to find vulnerabilities in any argument and expose them to the 
public. They are tenacious and intelligent, and Daniel does an 
excellent job working with them every day to get them the information 
they seek and to do so in a way that is most beneficial to the Members 
and Committees he is working for. It is not an easy task, but Daniel 
does it with exceptional skill.
  While working with us he has maintained excellent relationships 
across a broad spectrum of writers, editors, and producers. He reads 
voraciously and is always well informed and well prepared for the 
challenges presented by his work. He is an excellent writer and a 
master communicator.
  I enjoyed working closely with Daniel on the House Judiciary 
Committee and in my personal office for the past several years. 
Together we worked with dozens of Members of Congress to help shape our 
strategy, messaging, and legal approach in countless hearings and 
markups. We identified the most powerful messages and amplified them in 
the press and on social media.
  Daniel built the greatest social media operation of any Committee on 
Capitol Hill--training and supervising staff that were nimble, 
provocative, and engaging. Under his supervision the number of 
subscribers and their level of engagement with our content far outpaced 
the traditional House committee.
  Daniel has been at the epicenter of all of our crisis communications, 
tackling difficult questions with a level head, and providing excellent 
advice. My senior management team and I have always trusted Daniel's 
judgment and strategic thinking. While working separately on my 
campaign, Daniel helped propel me to a 30-point victory over a fellow 
Democratic Committee Chair in a tough New York primary. He was 
essential in debate preparation and worked with me to anticipate 
questions and ensure that I was ready to respond in the most powerful 
way possible. He led the communications team during the primary and 
helped me secure the New York Times endorsement.
  I wish Daniel the best of luck as he continues to fight for the 
rights and liberties of all people and I thank him for his service.
