               RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF MR. ANDREW BOHN

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. ZACHARY NUNN

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, March 3, 2026

  Mr. NUNN of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an 
individual who has been an indispensable member of Team Nunn since the 
very beginning--Andrew Bohn, whose dedicated service strengthened both 
our office and Iowa's 3rd Congressional District.
  A proud son of West Des Moines and a graduate of the University of 
Iowa, Andrew brought Iowa common sense, sound judgment, and an 
unwavering commitment to every role he held in our office. From 
Legislative Aide, where he established our constituent mail program and 
mentored younger staff, to Legislative Assistant, where he drafted his 
first

bill, the CLARITY Act, to strengthen our national security and counter 
China. These efforts built the foundation that culminated in his 
promotion to National Security Advisor, where he became one of the most 
trusted voices in our office on some of the most consequential issues 
before Congress.
  Andrew played a central role in advancing our national security 
priorities, helping us secure more provisions in the Fiscal Year 2026 
National Defense Authorization Act than any other Member of Congress. 
He helped lead on several marquee pieces of legislation, including the 
AI Plan Act and the Maximum Pressure Act to expand Iran sanctions, both 
topics that remain top of mind today. His diligent work strengthened 
our national security, supported our servicemembers and their families, 
and ensured that Iowa's voice was clearly represented in shaping 
America's defense policy.
  Yet Andrew's greatest contributions extend beyond legislative 
achievements. He approached every responsibility with steadiness, 
humility, and a deep sense of duty to the people of Iowa's 3rd 
District. Whether navigating complex policy challenges or welcoming 
visiting Iowans to the Capitol, Andrew exemplified professionalism and 
kindness. My own family experienced this firsthand, as he was often the 
first to go on a scavenger hunt or take my daughters for ice cream--
small gestures that reflected his character and genuine commitment to 
service.
  Through long hours, demanding negotiations, and pivotal legislative 
moments, Andrew remained focused on delivering results for Iowans and 
upholding the trust placed in our office.
  Andrew Bohn strengthened our team and advanced our mission to serve 
Iowa's 3rd Congressional District with integrity and purpose. We wish 
Andrew success in his next endeavors and have no doubt he will continue 
to lead and serve with excellence in the next chapter of his career. 
The distinctive accomplishments of his service greatly reflect himself, 
the people of Iowa, and the United States.
