I rise today to recognize a longtime member of my staff who recently became a Senior Stennis Congressional Fellow. Ken Flanz has been a central member of my staff since 1997, currently serving as my legislative director. In addition to advancing my legislative agenda and guiding my staff, Ken's responsibilities include foreign affairs, intelligence, Native Americans, appropriations, congressional and campaign reform, and human rights issues. Throughout his years of dedicated service, Ken has been a valued resource to many in the Senate and has contributed helpful insight. His thoughtful approach, patience, and knowledge have been instrumental to the Senate community. Ken's achievements through the Stennis Congressional Fellows Program will serve him well and be beneficial to my office and the Senate. I commend Ken for this distinguished achievement.
