      CONGRATULATING RICHARD L. HARRIS ON JOINING THE NAFCU BOARD

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ADAM B. SCHIFF

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, July 1, 2010

  Mr. SCHIFF. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Richard 
Harris on his recent election to the Board of Directors at the National 
Association of Federal Credit Unions, NAFCU.
  Mr. Harris has shown tremendous leadership at Caltech Federal Credit 
Union, where he currently serves as president and CEO, as well as 
treasurer of the Caltech Credit Union Board of Directors. Undoubtedly, 
NAFCU will benefit greatly from Mr. Harris's vast experience in credit 
union management which dates back to 1981.
  Over the years Mr. Harris has been an active member of the NAFCU 
family and is a welcomed addition to the board at a time when Congress 
has taken up legislation that would significantly reform the financial 
services sector and the way credit unions do business.
  It is because of the good work and leadership of Richard and others 
like him that the credit union community enjoys the success it has 
today. Such service is the hallmark of credit unions and I wish Mr. 
Harris the best of luck in his new role as a member of the NAFCU Board 
of Directors. I look forward to working with him in this capacity and I 
ask my colleagues to join me today in congratulating Richard on this 
achievement.
