       ANTHONY URIBE RECOGNIZED AS YOUNG PROFESSIONAL OF THE YEAR

  (Mr. BERA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. BERA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate one of my staff 
members, Anthony Uribe, who is being recognized by the Sacramento Metro 
Chamber of Commerce as a Young Professional of the Year.
  Anthony joined my staff in 2018, when he was a senior at Sacramento 
State, as an intern. He came on as a staff assistant and has been 
working his way up. Anthony has shown grit and perseverance, 
representing the Sacramento communities of North Sacramento, Del Paso 
Heights, and Natomas. He is a great extension of what we do.
  Anthony is innovative. One of the best Anthony stories is that, as a 
staff assistant, you have to pick the Member of Congress up early in 
the morning

sometimes. Because I am on the West Coast, that is a 4 a.m. pickup 
call. One morning, he may have overslept his alarm clock there, so he 
got there and said: I will get you to the airport, Mr. Congressman.
  For those in Sacramento County, he got me from Elk Grove to the 
airport in 10 minutes flat. Maybe there was a little bit of speeding 
there.
  I congratulate Anthony. I wish I was there with him for the awards 
ceremony. It is a well-deserved award.
