HONORING STUART A. VanMEVEREN
______
HON. BOB SCHAFFER
of colorado
in the house of representatives
Tuesday, July 27, 1999
Mr. SCHAFFER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today not only to extend congratulations to a national figure, but also to tell you how proud I am this honoree hails from, and lives in, my home town of Fort Collins, Colorado. Mr. Stuart A. VanMeveren, the District Attorney who has served Larimer County for twenty-seven years, has been elected the new president of the National District Attorneys' Association (NDAA).
This organization is the largest national professional organization specifically serving the needs of prosecutors in the United States. NDAA is truly a national organization which represents the interests of prosecutors not only from major metropolitan areas, but rural communities like those found in Larimer County.
I have known Stu for fifteen years, but now I'm looking forward to working more closely with him as he directs the NDAA testifying before congressional committees, working with the U.S. Department of Justice, and other federal agencies on matters of public policy affecting the safety of America's communities.
The National District Attorneys Association is going into its fiftieth year of service. I cannot think of a more qualified individual to lead NDAA into the twenty-first century. Stu VanMeveren truly embodies the mission statement of NDAA which is ``To be the voice of America's prosecutors and to support their efforts to protect the rights and safety of the people.''
