  Ms. SANCHEZ. Mr. Speaker, on this day, I would like to honor Sergeant 
Arthur J. Reddy on his retirement after 33 years of service as a police 
officer with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Mr. Reddy has 
contributed greatly to the well-being of our citizens.
  Sergeant Reddy began working in the Sheriff's Department in 1967. His 
assignments have included custody, patrol, and narcotics. He served as 
a representative to federal, state, and local narcotic advisory 
councils and enforcement agencies. He also received the distinguished 
honor of working with the U.S. Department of Justice Task Force in 
which he served as an inter-agency liaison.
  In 1979, he was he was elected to the Board of Directors of the L.A. 
County Professional Police Officer's Association. Mr. Reddy's 
leadership roles in numerous organizations culminated in 1995 when he 
was elected to serve as the Vice-President of the International Union 
of Police Associations and Legislative Liaison for three terms. 
Sergeant Reddy has not only fulfilled all the requirements of his job 
in an exemplary manner, but he has gone above and beyond the call of 
duty.
  It is because of these accomplishments I am deeply honored in 
recognizing Sergeant Reddy today. He deserves our deepest gratitude and 
sincere wishes for a happy and peaceful retirement.
