 RECOGNIZING TAWANDA DICKENS ON HER RETIREMENT FROM U.S. CAPITOL POLICE

  (Ms. FOXX asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Ms. FOXX. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Tawanda Dickens, who is a 
civilian employee with the United States Capitol Police.
  Ms. Dickens, as most of us call her, will be retiring in August after 
many years of remarkable service. Her work is often unseen, as she 
covers the late-night shift within the Capitol complex, but I, along 
with many others, agree that her work makes a real positive difference 
to those of us who know her.
  I am so fortunate that Ms. Dickens not only helped me often, but, as 
she did with many, many others, she befriended me. She is someone who 
is a friend to many here in the people's House, and she is respected by 
all who know her.
  I congratulate Ms. Dickens on her well-deserved retirement. May God 
continue to bless her and her family as she enters this new and 
exciting chapter of her life.
