  Mr. COFFMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to express my appreciation to 
City of Littleton Mayor and City Council Member At Large Bruce Beckman 
for his many years of extraordinary work and dedication to the City of 
Littleton. Mayor Beckman's leadership has, amongst other 
accomplishments, contributed to the city's reputation as one of the 
best places to live in the State of Colorado and in our nation.
  Throughout Mayor Beckman's tenure as both Mayor and City Councilman, 
he consistently guided city policy towards improving the quality of 
life and growth. He has worked relentlessly towards preserving and 
cultivating a quality community, developing a financially sound city 
government, and pursuing a balanced and sustainable local economy.
  In addition, Mayor Beckman has represented the interests and concerns 
of the City of Littleton as a member of the Denver Metro Mayors Caucus 
and as an alternate Board Member on the Denver Regional Council of 
Governments.
  Prior to his public service as the City of Littleton Mayor, Beckman 
served our country and state in the United States Army and the Colorado 
Army National Guard; ultimately retiring at the rank of Colonel. In 
Littleton, he worked to protect others throughout his long career with 
the Littleton Police Department, until his retirement as Division Chief 
in 2010.
  Mr. Speaker, Bruce Beckman represents the very best in public service 
that the State of Colorado and our nation has to offer. I commend Mayor 
Beckman; he has served his community, our state, and our country 
tirelessly over a long and impressive career in public service. I wish 
him the best of luck in all his future endeavors.
