Notă biografică
KEN BUCK (WINDSOR, COLORADO) is a Republican Congressman representing Colorado's 4th Congressional District. He was first elected to Congress on November 4, 2014, and is currently serving his fourth term in the United States House of Representatives. Congressman Buck is the Ranking Member on the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Antitrust, Commercial and Administrative Law. He also serves on the House Judiciary Committee and the House Foreign Affairs Committee; the Subcommittee on Immigration and Citizenship; and on the House Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia, The Pacific, and Nonproliferation.
Buck learned the value of hard work from his grandfather, who opened a shoe repair store in Greeley in the 1930s. One of three brothers, he worked his way through high school, college, and law school as a janitor, truck driver, furniture mover, and ranch hand.
After law school, Buck worked for Congressman Dick Cheney (R-WY) on the Iran-Contra Investigation and then became a prosecutor with the U.S. Department of Justice. In 1990, he joined the Colorado U.S. Attorney's Office where he became the Chief of the Criminal Division.
In 2002, Buck joined Hensel Phelps Construction Co. in Greeley as a business executive.
Starting in 2004, Buck was elected Weld County District Attorney three times. He led a staff of more than sixty people with a strong record of criminal prosecution and crime prevention. Under his leadership, the crime rate in Weld County dropped 50%, one of the best records in the country.
Congressman Buck is a Christian and a leader in his profession and community. He has volunteered and served on the boards of many important community groups. As District Attorney, Buck brought together community leaders to create the Juvenile Assessment Center. The Center has helped more than two thousand kids and their families get back on the right path in life.
Buck's son Cody graduated from West Point and served in the U.S. Army and his daughter Kaitlin works as a business executive in Colorado.
The author lives & works in the Boulder, CO metro area and Washington, D.C.
