                      Tuesday, September 29, 2015

  Mr. WALKER. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to recognize Lauren Whaley as 
she and her family begin a new chapter in their lives. I want to thank 
her for her service to the Carolinas

[[Page 15411]]

Credit Union League and all the credit unions in North Carolina they 
represent.
  Lauren and her husband, Charles, are graduates of North Carolina 
State University, and have called Raleigh home for many years. Last 
year, they were blessed to welcome their beautiful daughter, Margaret 
Blaire Whaley, into their family.
  Lauren has been with the League for over six years and has served as 
the Vice President of Governmental Affairs representing credit unions 
in both the North Carolina General Assembly and the United States 
Congress. She has represented credit unions with the highest degree of 
professionalism and has a work ethic that is second to none.
  Lauren was instrumental in working to help pass legislation to curb 
elder financial abuse in North Carolina. Her accomplishments are many 
and her mark is as lasting as her impression on those she meets. As a 
freshman member, I appreciate the resource she has been to me and my 
staff.
  I know Lauren will be missed as she departs from the League not only 
for her industry knowledge, but also for who she is as a person. I wish 
Lauren and her family the best.
