               HONORING THE RETIREMENT OF WILLIAM McMANUS

  (Mr. GALLEGO asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GALLEGO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to say thank you to Bill 
McManus, William McManus, who has announced his retirement as the chief 
of the San Antonio Police Department in the seventh largest city in the 
country.

  Chief McManus has been on board in San Antonio for some 8 years, but 
he brought with him 30 years of experience in law enforcement in such 
areas as diverse as narcotics, tactical positions, criminal 
investigations, internal investigations, the full range of experience.
  As a result of his service in San Antonio, their police department is 
more well-respected, more well-trained than ever in San Antonio's 
history.
  Chief McManus I first met when he was testifying before the 
legislature and I served as chair of the committee on criminal 
jurisprudence.
  I know well his passion for law enforcement and his passion for 
people. We will miss him dearly at the city, but we wish him well in 
his future endeavors.
