Mr. Speaker, I am immensely grateful to call Debbie Lesko not only a colleague but also a genuine friend. She is someone I admire. Debbie is one of the kindest and most forgiving people I have ever met in my life. I can attest to that personally because she forgave me in a very big way. She has built a reputation as a rock-ribbed Conservative champion. From her time in the Arizona State Legislature to her service here within the people's House, she never faltered in her work to protect the values and God-given freedoms of her constituents and the American people. Her friendship and collegiality will be sorely missed as we enter into a new Congress, but I know that wherever she goes, she will continue to leave a positive, indelible mark with her work and passion. God bless Debbie, and may He continue to bless her family as she turns the page and enters a new chapter in her life. ____________________
