  Mr. HUNTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Jonathan D. Olsen for 
his involvement in the San Diego community. Jonathan is a lifelong 
resident of Santee, California, having graduated from Santana High 
School and finalizing his bachelor of arts degree in 2011.
  Jonathan has served as the president of the Santee Chamber of 
Commerce, is leading a successful organization and serves the community 
with distinction. He is a thriving businessman in Santee, having worked 
in the Santee community management and operating several business 
endeavors. He has great abilities in working and managing his family's 
doughnut shops and other businesses.
  Jonathan also has been active in the development of the special 
edition of the Echo, the Santee Street Fair, Business Expos, the Santee 
Car Show, and the Santee Chamber of Commerce Awards Night. Under his 
leadership, several successful community events were organized. These 
include the Miss Santee-Teen Pageant, Sunrise Santee Morning mixers and 
programs, business-after-five monthly business networking meetings, 
Santee Day at the County Fair, Fall Frenzy-City Wide Sale and Craft 
Fair, SCORE Counseling-SBA counseling, installation and retreat 
planning and numerous ribbon cutting and grand opening ceremonies. 
Jonathan is also involved in speaking to high school and college 
students concerning their goals and aspirations.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a great honor to stand in recognition of Jonathan 
Olsen for his tireless work as a member of the San Diego community. 
Such an extraordinary level of dedication serves as an example to 
others and showcases the goodness that community service, charity and 
strong local leadership could have on impacting the lives of others. I 
ask that my colleagues join me in paying tribute to Jonathan and 
wishing him continued success in the future.
