                        Tuesday, April 12, 2016

  Mr. THOMPSON of California. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize and 
honor Lieutenant Lisa Maloney, with the City of Martinez Police 
Department. Lieutenant Maloney honorably retired on December 30, 2015, 
after more than 22 years of service.
  Lieutenant Maloney began her career in law enforcement in 1993 with 
the Fairfax City Police Department in Virginia. The Virginia Police 
Chiefs recognized Lieutenant Maloney in 1996 with the Lifesaving Award 
for her heroic actions during an incident while on duty, which put her 
in harm's way while attempting to save the life of another individual. 
After moving to California, Lieutenant Maloney joined the Martinez 
Police Department in 1998 as an officer. During the course of her 
career she has served on various assignments including Patrol Officer, 
Detective, Hostage Negotiator, Defensive Tactics Instructor, Detective 
Sergeant and Lieutenant.
  Additionally, Lieutenant Maloney completed extensive training 
throughout her career, demonstrating her commitment to law enforcement. 
She attained certification in 2013 from the Sherman Block Supervisory 
Leadership Institute, an intense 8-month learning program based on 
experiential learning techniques covering leadership, management, and 
ethical decision making for law enforcement front-line supervisors. Her 
dedication to public safety and improving the lives of the men and 
women of her department speaks volumes about her character and 
professionalism.
  Mr. Speaker, Lieutenant Lisa Maloney has protected her community for 
over 22 years in her remarkable career in law enforcement, and I wish 
her the best in retirement. The people of the City of Martinez have 
benefitted greatly from her public service, and it is fitting and 
proper that we honor her here today.
