  Ms. SOLIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a great community 
leader and President of the Indian American Friendship Council, Dr. 
Krishna Reddy, for his commitment to the advancement of the U.S.-India 
relationship and the Indian-American community.
  Dr. Reddy has a remarkable record of advocating on behalf of the 
Indian-American community. As Founder and President of the Indian 
American Friendship Council, Dr. Reddy has demonstrated his tremendous 
dedication to improving U.S.-India relations. His expertise and service 
have undoubtedly led to increased dialogue and solidarity between these 
two democracies.
  Dr. Reddy's commitment to engaging the Indian-American community in 
the political process and ensuring that Indian-Americans have a voice 
in our government is also commendable. His organized efforts have 
helped educate Congress about issues important to India and the Indian-
American community and fostered relationships between Members of 
Congress and Indian-Americans nationwide.
  It is a great honor to pay tribute to Dr. Krishna Reddy and the 
Indian American Friendship Council.
