                      HONORING ANTOINETTE NADDOUR

  (Mr. CORREA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. CORREA. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to honor Major Antoinette 
Naddour, an Orange County resident, a veteran, and a person who spent 
her career serving the homeless and at-risk veterans.
  Antoinette began her career after witnessing a surge of 
servicemembers returning from Iraq and Afghanistan who were homeless. 
This motivated her to cofound a Veterans Legal Institute in Orange 
County where she focused on developing veteran-focused legal services.
  This month, she is retiring from her role as executive director of 
the Veterans Legal Services, but she will continue to make a difference 
in the lives of veterans serving as an ambassador and supporting 
fundraising efforts to ensure that our veterans receive the legal help 
that they deserve.
  Mr. Speaker, today, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing 
Antoinette Naddour for the profound impact that she has made in the 
lives of our veterans.
