  Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Allan Y. Jendian 
for being elected Secretary/Treasurer of Chapter 97 of the National 
Treasury Employees Union (NTEU). The NTEU represents 6,000 employees of 
the Fresno Internal Revenue Service (IRS) Campus.
  Jendian has been an IRS Revenue Agent for the past 34 years. During 
the last fiscal year, he was named ``Employee of the Year'' of the 
Compliance Division for his community service at Public Service 
Recognition ceremonies. Jendian also successfully coordinated the 
Fresno IRS Campus Combined Federal Campaign, which reached a record-
breaking high of over $220,000.
  Jendian, who has long been a highly active member of his community, 
is a Deacon at the Armenian Orthodox Church. He recently served as the 
Regional Chairman of the Pontifical Visit of the Catholics of All 
Armenians to the Central Valley. In addition, he serves on numerous 
Boards, including the Armenia Fund of the Western Region, the Diocesan 
Council of the Western Diocese and the Armenian Inter-Denominational 
Community Council. Furthermore, Jendian is an active member of the St. 
Paul Armenian Church, Armenian General Benevolent Union, Knights of 
Vartan and the Tekeyan Cultural Association, while serving on various 
committees within these organizations.
  Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate Allan Y. Jendian for being 
elected Secretary/Treasurer of Chapter 97 of the National Treasury 
Employees Union. I urge my colleagues to join me in wishing Mr. Jendian 
many more years of continued success.
