    COMMENDING HEATHER LASHER TODD FOR HER SERVICE TO THE HOUSE OF 
                            REPRESENTATIVES

  (Mr. PALLONE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)

session of Congress, and I just wanted to take the opportunity to thank 
my press secretary, Heather Lasher Todd,

who is actually leaving today and going back to St. Louis, where she is 
from, with her husband. Both of them used to work for Congressman 
Carnahan, who was here before on the floor.
  Many of my colleagues on the Democratic side of the aisle see Heather 
on a daily basis when she is down here with me trying to get Members to 
do 1-minutes and other message opportunities, and also worked very hard 
to have our weekly message meetings and come up with timely topics and 
people who would speak.
  I am going to sorely miss her. I know that many of my colleagues will 
as well. I just want to wish her and her husband a great future back in 
St. Louis where they are from.
