 IN RECOGNITION OF TRANSPORTATION SECURITY OFFICERS AT PHOENIX AIRPORT

  (Mrs. LESKO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. LESKO. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
Transportation Security Officers at the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport for 
their bravery and dedication to their mission to keep our airports 
safe.
  Last month on June 18, a man rushed a TSA security checkpoint at the 
Phoenix Airport, injuring and knocking over several TSOs in the 
process. I would like to thank the following TSOs who showed courage in 
subduing the attacker, even as he attempted to hurt and push past the 
officers:
  Donna Potts O'Brien, Cynthia Baker, Christopher Cotton, Sandra 
Thompson, Patricia Miller-Davis, Gladys Recinos, Michael Malloy, Melvin 
Gorham, Adam Ervin, Kenneth Fetter, Robert Morelos, Michael Wilmoth, 
and Roberto Lopez.
  I am grateful to these heroic officers and commend their actions to 
keep the Phoenix Airport secure.
