Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Truitt Eavenson from Carnesville, Georgia, on his retirement after 36 amazing years at Georgia Power.

Truitt began his career at Georgia Power in 1984 as a distribution engineer, and he remained faithful to the company's values and operations ever since.

He held a variety of leadership roles within Georgia Power, including, most recently, serving as the southeast region vice president since 2017.

He was instrumental at fostering good working relationships with elected State officials, other Georgia companies and industries, and Georgia Power field office managers when he served as their vice president of governmental and regulatory affairs.

He has been a leader in his community throughout his work with numerous organizations, including the Ossabaw Island Foundation, Savannah Area Chamber of Commerce, Savannah Economic Development Authority, and the University of Georgia Alumni Association.

Mr. Speaker, I am thankful for Truitt's years of faithful service to Georgia Power and his community, and I wish him and his family the best as he begins his retirement.

Congratulations, my friend.
