                     Wednesday, September 22, 2010

  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Madam Speaker, I come to the floor 
today to recognize and wish the people of South Korea and our Korean 
Americans a blessed Chuseok holiday.
  Chuseok is a time of great thanksgiving in South Korea and a time 
when families celebrate their ancestry.
  This year, Chuseok takes place September 20-23, 2010, and I would 
like this opportunity to specifically thank our Korean-American 
community in Orange County.
  Their contributions to California and the United States have moved 
this country in the right direction.
  I would also like to recognize the strong US-ROK alliance and the 
blessing which have developed from this long and enduring relationship.
  I wish the people of Korea and all our Korean-Americans a joyful 
Chuseok.
