Recognizing Ben Fahrmann

Floor Speech

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. EZELL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a special accomplishment by someone connected to my office--Ben Fahrmann, the brother of my Director of Operations, Olivia Fahrmann--on his graduation from the police academy on April 9, 2026.

Ben is returning to serve as a Patrol Officer with the Gulf Shores Police Department after previously serving as a detention officer. This is not just a career move, it's a calling. It takes dedication, commitment, and a strong work ethic to answer that call, and Ben has demonstrated all of those qualities. He is also known for being kind and caring, traits that are just as important in law enforcement as strength and discipline.

As a former law enforcement officer myself, I know the sacrifices that come with wearing the badge. Ben is stepping into a role that demands courage, integrity, and service to others.

We are proud of Ben. I thank him for his service, and may God keep him safe.
