            RECOGNIZING UNION CITY POLICE CHIEF BRIAN FOLEY

  (Mr. SWALWELL of California asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SWALWELL of California. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize 
Union City Police Chief Brian Foley as he retires at the end of 
September after almost 30 years of service.
  Brian grew up in California before graduating from California State 
University, Chico, with a degree in business administration. In 1986, 
Brian joined the Union City Police Department, fulfilling a dream of 
becoming a police officer.
  He worked for the Union City Police Department in a variety of areas, 
including crime scene investigator, homicide detective, and SWAT team 
member. His hard work and skills propelled him into leadership roles 
such as SWAT team leader, sergeant, captain, and--since January 2012--
chief.
  On behalf of the residents of Union City and the 15th Congressional 
District, I want to thank Chief Foley for his years of dedicated and 
courageous service. He has played a key role in helping to keep the 
streets of Union City safe, and he will be sorely missed.
  I also wish Brian well as he enters the next phase of his life. I am 
sure he

is looking forward to spending more time with his wife and children. 
After so many years of hard work for the people of Union City, this 
opportunity is well-deserved.
