                      RECOGNIZING WARREN PETERSEN

  (Mrs. LESKO asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mrs. LESKO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize someone whose 
service will be felt by future generations of Arizonans--Arizona Senate 
President Warren Peterson.
  Senator Petersen's service to the people of Arizona began in 2012 
when he was elected to the Arizona House of Representatives.
  Throughout his time in the House, he served as chairman of the 
Judiciary Committee and majority leader. Once his time in the House 
came to an end, Senator Petersen was elected to the Arizona Senate 
where he became President in 2023.
  Under his leadership, Arizona has accomplished school choice, passed 
tax cuts for families across the State, and worked hard to enforce 
border security in the face of opposition from the left.
  During my own time in the Arizona House of Representatives, I was 
lucky enough to serve alongside President Petersen where he was a 
respected colleague and a friend.
  Petersen's service to Arizona could not be overstated, and his 
leadership is appreciated by all Arizonans.
