RECOGNIZING THE SERVICE OF PAM MARPHIS
______
HON. STEVE SCALISE
of louisiana
in the house of representatives
Thursday, December 9, 2021
Mr. SCALISE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the service of Pam Marphis, a selfless public servant and one of the longest-serving staffers in my office.
Pam's 22 years working in Congress began with then-Representative David Vitter in 1999, then with Bobby Jindal, and then with my office when I won a special election in 2008.
Pam Marphis has helped thousands of constituents with their casework over the course of her career and she has been a rock star in so many ways.
In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, Pam tirelessly helped Louisiana families navigate the FEMA bureaucracy so that they could get the help they needed to rebuild their homes and communities that were devastated.
When there was a child in Honduras needing heart surgery, Pam worked with the State Department to get that child to a hospital in Louisiana.
And as the world began to shut down in the beginning of this pandemic, Pam worked round-the-clock to get U.S. citizens back home.
I thank Pam, for her faithful service to our country. Her decades of experience will be sorely missed. Jennifer and I wish Pam and Gary the best in this next chapter of their lives.
