                        Wednesday, July 30, 2014

  Mr. DANNY K. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, on Saturday, July 26th, 
I had the opportunity to march with the Mayor of Broadview, the 
Honorable Sherman Jones; Mayor of Westchester, the Honorable Sam 
Paulia; Cook County Recorder of Deeds, the Honorable Karen Yarborough; 
the Honorable Chris Welch, State Representative; the Honorable Edwina 
Perkins, Mayor of Maywood; Trustees of Broadview, Attorney Richard 
Boykin and Democratic Nominee for District 1 of the Cook County Board, 
as well as a host of dignitaries from throughout the western suburbs, 
especially Proviso Township.
  Proud residents of Broadview were lined outside their beautiful homes 
as we made our way to the shopping center where a daylong family 
festival was being staged. I understand that Governor Pat Quinn came 
later to bring greetings and salute the Mayors and other elected 
officials and residents who had gathered.
  I take this opportunity to congratulate the Village of Broadview on 
its 100 years as an organized part of Cook County and Proviso Township 
in the great state of Illinois.
