  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend the Honorable Cosme 
Sanchez, Jr. on his outstanding commitment to public service. Mr. 
Sanchez has spent over three decades serving his community, most 
recently as Costilla County Treasurer. Mr. Sanchez has also served as 
County Appraiser and Town Clerk and Municipal Judge for the town of San 
Luis.
  The Honorable Mr. Sanchez has served the citizens of Costilla County 
exceptionally well in his roles as a public servant. Citizens such as 
Mr. Sanchez, that are willing to spend so much of their lives serving 
the public, are the reason that the state of Colorado is the great 
state that it is. Costilla County is privileged to have had such an 
upstanding public servant as Mr. Sanchez.
  I would like to congratulate Mr. Sanchez on his commitment to 
bettering his community through public service. I wish him the best in 
his future endeavors.
