                   CONGRATULATING MAYOR KEVIN HARTKE

  (Mr. BIGGS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BIGGS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Chandler Mayor 
Kevin Hartke, who took his oath of office earlier this month. Mayor 
Hartke previously served on the Chandler City Council, where he was, 
most recently, the vice mayor.
  Mayor Hartke and his family are longtime Chandler residents, and they 
are extremely active in their community. He and his wife, Lynne, have 
been married for 37 years, and have four children and four 
grandchildren. He served on one of my advisory councils in the last 
Congress, offering a distinct perspective on how my staff and I could 
engage the faith-based community.
  Madam Speaker, individuals like Mayor Hartke provide stability and 
vital leadership to our cities and towns. Chandler was recently rated 
as the number ten city in the country for job seekers. Under Mayor 
Hartke's direction, I have every confidence that he will continue to 
help Chandler's

forward to our efforts to serve our constituents in the East Valley.
