BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. FLOOD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Lee Polikov, the longtime county attorney for Sarpy County, Nebraska.

Lee is a graduate of Omaha Westside High School. He later earned his bachelor's and J.D. from the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. Along the way, he was commissioned as a first lieutenant in the U.S. Army.

He was eventually appointed to become the Sarpy County Attorney, after serving as a deputy in the sheriff's office. Through the years, he has managed a team of about 100 staff as he has worked to maintain the integrity of the county attorney's office and keep people safe.

This year, Lee decided not to run for reelection.

Mr. Speaker, I thank Lee for his work leading the Sarpy County Attorney's Office and for serving the people of Sarpy County through the years.

Best wishes on his retirement, and I am sure tonight, like we all are, he will enjoy watching the Big Red defeat the Hawkeyes in the Sweet 16.
