                          HONORING JASON ROSS

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JOHN RATCLIFFE

                                of texas

                    in the house of representatives

                        Monday, October 21, 2019

  Mr. RATCLIFFE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and thank a truly 
great American, my District Chief of Staff, Jason Ross. After five 
years of dedication to our country and the communities of Texas' Fourth 
Congressional District, Jason is departing from my office to return to 
the private sector with a record of extraordinary achievement and the 
gratitude of thousands of Texans whom he has served faithfully.
  Madam Speaker, I don't have the words to accurately or adequately 
convey my gratitude for Jason's commitment, dedication, devotion and 
loyalty to this endeavor over the past five years.
  Since Day 1 in January 2015, I have trusted Jason with charting a 
course for our district operations to the more than 700,000 Texans 
across 18 counties. Now, almost 5 years later, there has never been a 
single day where I have not been rewarded for that decision.
  Along the way, I've been witness to and credited for so many great 
and wonderful things that have transpired in our district--but always 
knowing that the credit belongs to and has resulted from the work of 
everyone on staff, under Jason's inspiring leadership.
  Personally, I could never have expected or deserved a better 
supporter, defender, confidant and friend than Jason Ross.
  I was once told that if the only prayer you ever say in your life is 
``thank you,'' but if you say it with genuine praise and glory to God, 
then you've both said and prayed enough. So, on behalf of Texas' Fourth 
Congressional District, I would like to formally honor Jason Ross on 
his years of dedicated service to our constituents and this nation by 
saying . . .
  Thank you, Jason.
