                         TRIBUTE TO KACK HASLAG

  Mr. SCHMITT. Madam President, I rise today to honor Mrs. Kack Haslag 
of Jefferson City, MO, for her service to the State of Missouri.
  When I was first elected to the Missouri State Senate in 2008, knew I 
needed to surround myself with talented and organized staff who would 
help me serve the people of Missouri. Kack Haslag's impressive record 
made her a clear choice. Kack diligently served as an attentive public 
servant. As I reviewed a host of legislation, Kack was able to keep my 
office focused, and together, we authored tax cuts, advocated for those 
with special needs, and fought to end taxation by citation.
  Kack provided invaluable guidance with such a kind and caring 
disposition to me, my wife, and my children, and we still think of her 
fondly as a member of our family. She served as a capable liaison for 
my office and allowed me to focus on being a lawmaker. Her deep 
knowledge of the State legislature was of tremendous help to me, and I 
greatly relied on her advice. She contributed so much to my early 
success as a legislator, and the knowledge she imparted to me continues 
to serve me well as I represent Missouri in the U.S. Senate.
  Kack is truly a Champion of Missouri. I am indebted to Kack for the 
time and attention she dedicated to our success during the early years 
of my service to the great State of Missouri. I wish her all the best 
in her retirement and hope she enjoys well-deserved time with her 
family.
