     CONGRATULATING FORMER SHREVEPORT POLICE CHIEF HENRY WHITEHORN

  (Mr. FLEMING asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. FLEMING. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate former 
Shreveport Police Chief Henry Whitehorn on being sworn in as the United 
States marshal for the Western District of Louisiana. Prior to becoming 
the first African American police chief in Shreveport's history, 
Marshal Whitehorn served 29 years in the Louisiana State Police, 
eventually becoming appointed to the posts of deputy secretary for 
Public Safety Services and Louisiana State Police Superintendent by 
Governor Kathleen Blanco. Marshal Whitehorn also served 4 years as a 
sergeant in the United States Air Force.
  I thank Marshal Whitehorn for his many years of public service and 
wish him the best as he continues to serve the people of Louisiana in 
this new position.
