Mr. VINDMAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and thank my Deputy District Director, Marc Rabourdin for his service to the people of Virginia's Seventh Congressional District with distinction for more than four years.

Before joining my office Marc began his service to the Seventh Congressional District working for my dear friend and predecessor. former Congresswoman and now Governor Abigail Spanberger.

Bringing a wealth of knowledge, professionalism, and care, he has continued to deliver results for Central and Northern Virginia. From the very first day in January 2025, his dedication has made a real difference in the lives of the people we serve.

Marc cultivated strong partnerships across the Seventh district. Always calm, steady, we referred to as the ``Mayor'' given his talent for meeting people where they were and nurturing positive relationships with leaders and stakeholders of all backgrounds.

Most notably, Marc was instrumental in my office's Community Project Funding initiatives for Fiscal Year 2026 as he helped to secure thousands of dollars for improving water treatment processes in the rural counties of Greene and Orange and brought millions of dollars for supporting law enforcement including Stafford County Sheriff, Town of Culpeper Police Department, Caroline County Sheriff's office, and Madison Sheriff's Office.

Marc is moving on to an exciting new role, now serving as the Director of Local Government Engagement in the Office of Governor Spanberger. While it is bittersweet to see him depart, I know that he will continue to do great work serving communities all across the Commonwealth.

I want to personally thank Marc for hitting the ground running and for setting a stellar example for the rest of my district team.

Mr. Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in commending Marc Rabourdin for his immeasurable service to the Commonwealth and Virginia's Seventh congressional district.
