                        Thursday, June 11, 2026

  Mr. WALKINSHAW. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Public Service 
Week and to honor the dedicated public servants of the Social Security 
Administration Reston Field Office who tirelessly serve Virginia's 11th 
Congressional District each day.
  The Reston Field Office plays a critical role in supporting residents 
across our district. Whether assisting seniors with retirement 
benefits, helping individuals navigate disability services, or 
supporting families during times of transition, these public servants 
are often the first point of contact for those seeking help. Their work 
ensures that residents receive the vital services they depend on.
  The staff of the Reston Field Office carry out this responsibility 
with professionalism and care. They assist individuals through complex 
processes, answer questions, and help resolve issues that have a real 
impact on people's lives.
  During Public Service Week, we recognize the importance of this work 
and the individuals who make it possible. In recognition of their 
service to Virginia's 11th Congressional District, I include in the 
Record the names of the 22 dedicated staff members of the Social 
Security Administration Reston Field Office.
       Brandice Shafron, Anh Duong-Anderson, Shyrell Delair, 
     Srinivasulu Rayala, Ravi Akkineni, Ramiro Espinoza, Quincy 
     Batiste, Erika Wells, Gabriela Martinez, Kaila Scott-
     Whitehead, Whitney Gordon, Joseph Deguzman, Julie Kubiak, AJ 
     Hartman, Natalia Jimenez, AnhTu Luu, Carisma Johnson, Brencis 
     Kim, Jawaria Adeel, Mariam Popal, Nora Bahamonde, and James 
     Lee.
  Their efforts reflect the vital role public servants play in 
strengthening our communities and supporting individuals and families 
across Northern Virginia.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Public 
Service Week and in expressing our gratitude to the staff of the Social 
Security Administration Reston Field Office for their continued service 
to our district.
