                       Tuesday, December 16, 2025

  Mr. WITTMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Captain 
Alexander Feldman, United States Marine Corps, and his service and 
contributions to Virginia's First District and the Nation.
  Alex joined my office in January and quickly became an indispensable 
member of my team. As my Department of Defense Legislative Fellow, Alex 
spearheaded numerous legislative efforts that delivered tangible 
results to the constituents of my district, the Commonwealth of 
Virginia, and the country. He was integral throughout the Fiscal Year 
2026 National Defense Authorization Act process, working across policy 
verticals and the aisle to enact meaningful legislation. He also led my 
veterans policy work, where he liaised with the Veterans Affairs 
Department and took immense pride and care in working with veteran 
constituents facing the unique challenges that only a service member 
themselves could appreciate.
  Alex has served as a mentor and leader for my legislative staff and 
the entire office, sharing his expertise and experience with the rest 
of my team. His counsel and guidance have shaped my staff into the most 
effective and successful team on Capitol Hill. Alex was truly the 
beating heart of my office, keeping the mood light, ever quick with a 
joke, and always willing to offer his colleagues sage advice.
  I would like to thank Alex for his many contributions and dedicated 
service over the last year. He is thorough, a true team player, and a 
spark in my office that will be dearly missed. Alex has been an 
invaluable member of my team, and I wish him the best of luck as he 
moves on to the next chapter of his professional career.
  Mr. Speaker, I thank you for joining me to recognize Alexander 
Feldman for his service to Virginia's 1st District and the Nation.
