Congressman Kelly honors county treasurer Krzysiak
'Christine embodies what it means to be a dedicated public servant,' said Kelly, whose congressional district includes Crawford County. 'Whether it's her role as Crawford County treasurer, serving in her church, or becoming a mentor to young professionals across the region, she continues to put others first and strengthen our communities.'
The award was presented Saturday during the Crawford County Republican Committee's spring dinner at The Oaks Event Hall and Lounge at Conneaut Lake.
'I was very surprised, very honored and felt very special,' Krzysiak told The Meadville Tribune on Thursday about receiving award. 'I had no inkling. Mike Kelly was the speaker; I was surprised when he called me up.'
Krzysiak, who is serving in her 14th year as county treasurer, will retire at the year when her current term expires.
Krzysiak serves on the executive board of the County Treasurers' Association of Pennsylvania and has done so for the last four years. She was elected as the group's president in 2023. She also has been a member of the Meadville Business and Professional Women since 2011, served as its treasurer for seven years, and currently serves on its audit committee. She also is an altar server at her church.
Previously, Krzysiak served as Venango Township's tax collector from 2005-11. She began working for Crawford County in the Clerk of Courts Office in 1984.
She and her husband, Tim, have three adult children and one grandchild.
The Community Champion award is a citation instituted by Kelly's office in January 2015 to recognize and honor service-minded individuals in Pennsylvania's 16th Congressional District for selfless and significant contributions to their surrounding communities.
Each winner is presented with a plaque from Kelly's office, a flag flown over the U.S. Capitol building, and a statement of congratulations that has been entered into the official Congressional Record.

Luna vows discharge petition for stock trading ban
Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) is vowing to file a discharge petition for legislation to ban members of Congress from trading stocks, as some lawmakers reignite the years-long push to do away with the practice. Luna's office confirmed the congresswoman's plan to start a discharge petition to The Hill. The House is currently on an extended summer recess and is slated to return to session the first week of September. 'Members of Congress should be banned from trading individual stocks because their access to privileged, nonpublic information creates unavoidable conflicts of interest that erode public confidence in government,' Luna said in a statement. 'As lawmakers, we receive classified briefings, shape economic policies, and interact with industry leaders, giving us insights that can influence stock prices.' 'Even if no laws are broken, the appearance of profiting from this access fuels distrust among Americans,' she added. 'The American people do not trust the US government, and this is a step forward to building that trust.' Once Luna files a discharge petition, she will have to acquire signatures from at least 217 colleagues to force a vote on the legislation. The procedural gambit allows consideration of measures if they have support from at least half of the House. Several lawmakers have introduced bills to ban members of Congress from trading stocks over the years. The current push comes after the House Ethics Committee last week found that Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) violated the lower chamber's code of conduct when his wife traded stock of the company Cleveland-Cliffs — which has a facility in Kelly's district — after the congressman received work that an announcement would be made to benefit the company. The trade was made before the information was public. The panel, however, cleared Kelly of intentionally causing his wife to trade based on insider information and having committed a conflict of interest. The effort to ban members of Congress from trading stocks has been long-running, with some lawmakers looking to make headway on the issue that is popular among the public but difficult for some folks on Capitol Hill. Resistance to the idea is, in part, fueled by the fact salaries for lawmakers have been frozen since 2009. It is already illegal for lawmakers to trade on insider information, and the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge Act (STOCK) Act, signed into law in 2012, mandates that members report their stock transactions within 30 days. But ethics advocates say the law is not strong enough and does not adjudicate conflict of interest concerns. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) backed banning members from trading stocks in May, telling reporters: 'I'm in favor of that, because I don't think we should have any appearance of impropriety here.' He did, however, make note of the salary freeze. 'If you stay on this trajectory, you're going to have less qualified people who are willing to make the extreme sacrifice to run for Congress,' Johnson said. 'I mean, just people just make a reasonable decision as a family on whether or not they can come to Washington and have a residence here, residence at home, and do all the things that are required. So the counterargument is, and I have some sympathy, 'Look, at least let them, like, engage in some stock trading, so that they can continue to, you know, take care of their family.'' But 'on balance,' Johnson said, 'we probably should' ban stock trading 'because I think it's been abused in the past, and I think sadly, a few bad actors discolor it for everyone.' House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) expressed support for the idea in April after The New York Times published a report that said Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) bought tens of thousands of dollars in stocks the day before and day of President Trump's pause in tariffs, which sparked a rise in the markets. The House came close to voting on legislation to ban member stock trading in 2021, but it never made it to the floor for consideration. Ethics watchdogs and some Democrats at the time said it was not strong enough, and Republicans were frustrated that they were not included in the process.
