Recognizing Rebecca Card Angelson

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize my Chief of Staff, Rebecca Card Angelson, who will leave my office at the end of this week.

Becky, as many know her by, has been a member of my team since 2019. Becky got her start on Capitol Hill over a decade ago when she interned for fellow Ohioan, Speaker John Boehner. Becky quickly rose through the ranks by working on the best committee in Congress, the Energy and Commerce Committee, and then with Congresswoman Susan Brooks of Indiana.

Since joining my office, Becky has committed countless--and often thankless--hours dutifully serving the people of Ohio's Fifth Congressional District. The hard work Becky has put in over the years has made an immeasurable difference in my life and the lives of my staff.

I'd be remiss without mentioning that during Becky's time in my office, she, and her husband Alex, welcomed two beautiful girls--Amelia and Daphne--into the world. In my view, they're members of Team Latta, too.

My office will not be the same without Becky helping to man the ship, but I can say with the utmost certainty that we are all better for knowing and working alongside her.

I am extremely grateful to Becky for her hard work, and I am sad to see her go, but I am excited to see what she will accomplish in the next chapter of her career.
