                       Tuesday, November 19, 2002

  Mr. ROGERS of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to 
the Capital Area Michigan Works! for their receipt of an exemplary 
service provider award from the U.S. Department of Labor. This award 
was presented at the U.S. Department of Labor's annual Salute to 
Veterans on November 13, 2002.
  Mr. Speaker, the Capital Area Michigan Works! is part of a regional 
consortium of local governments that provide workforce development 
services. The exemplary service provider award was presented to only 
nine organizations and individuals for their outstanding efforts in 
providing employment and training services to veterans.
  Therefore, Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in 
congratulating the Capital Area Michigan Works! for their distinguished 
service to America's veterans. Furthermore, I would also ask my 
colleagues to join me in extending our thanks to the Capital Area 
Michigan Works! for their service to our community.
