                       Tuesday, October 24, 2023

  Mr. PAPPAS. Mr. Speaker Pro Tempore, I rise today in recognition of 
Mark Pelletier, a New Hampshire resident who was recently named the 
2023 Young Professional of the Year by the Cooperative Credit Union 
Association. The Cooperative Credit Union Association annual awards 
recognize individuals across Delaware, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and 
New Hampshire that make the extra effort to empower their coworkers, 
company, and community. As the Young Professional of the Year, Mark has 
been recognized for his experience, enthusiasm, and strong work ethic 
at St. Mary's Bank in Manchester.
  A senior data analyst lead for St. Mary's, Mark was nominated by the 
credit union's leadership team and employees because of his inclusive 
leadership style, his skills in devising data-driven solutions, and his 
extensive volunteer record. For the past two years, Mark has served as 
Chairperson of St. Mary's Young Professionals Group. In this role, Mark 
has taken to guiding, influencing, and supporting other young 
professionals. Mark's time as leader of this Group is a testament to 
his talent and passion for promoting young business leaders across New 
Hampshire.
  Outside of the office, Mark has committed himself to addressing the 
needs of his community. In his free time, Mark volunteers with 
organizations such as Families in Transition and Habitat for Humanity. 
Dedicated to empowering young leaders and committed to supporting the 
local community, Mark has enriched the lives of all those around him.
  I look forward to seeing all that Mark accomplishes in the years to 
come, and I am confident that he will continue to serve as a guide for 
all those looking to make a difference at their workplace and in their 
community. On behalf of the constituents of New Hampshire's First 
Congressional District, I applaud Mark for his commendable leadership 
and wish him continued success in his future endeavors.
