  Mr. GUTHRIE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Karen Harbin 
on her recent election to the Board of Directors of the National 
Association of Federally-Insured Credit Unions (NAFCU).
  Karen is the President/CEO of Commonwealth Credit Union, which has 
branches in Kentucky's Second District. A Certified Public Accountant, 
Karen is a past chair of the Kentucky Credit Union League's Board of 
Directors and is the current Treasurer. She is currently serving a 3rd 
term as the Governor's appointee to the Kentucky Department of 
Financial Institutions Board. Karen has served on the Federal Reserve 
Bank's Community Depository Institutions Advisory Council and VolCorp's 
Asset Liability Management Committee. Passionate about health, Karen 
chairs her local American Heart Association's Heart Walk and is a 
member of the Corporate Council of the Shriners Hospital Lexington.
  Karen's vision and decision-making skills will be a valuable addition 
to the NAFCU Board and credit unions for years to come. I wish her the 
best of luck in her new role on the NAFCU Board of Directors, and I 
look forward to working with her.
