                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 16, 2015

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, the Ladies Auxiliary to the Veterans of 
Foreign Wars of the United States was established to serve our nation's 
veterans and their families. This organization honors military service 
and ensures that the history of America's veterans is preserved for 
future generations. With the help of its 500,000 members, the 
organization serves those who have been called to the highest honor by 
maintaining veterans' memorials, sharing veterans' history with the 
community, volunteering at veterans' hospitals, and providing 
scholarships to students recognizing patriotism through art and 
volunteerism. One very special member, who I would like to recognize 
today, President Brenda Johnson, rallies the theme ``LOVE FOR OUR 
VETERANS'' in my home state of Pennsylvania. President Johnson, a 
resident of Falls Township, is a Life Auxiliary member of the VFW#6495 
located on Haines Road in Levittown, Bucks County, PA, one of seven 
auxiliaries in my home district. I would like to thank President 
Johnson and the Ladies Auxiliary for their continued support and 
dedication and wish them continued success as they serve our veterans 
and their families.
