                    RECOGNIZING RABBI HAROLD KRAVITZ

  (Mr. PAULSEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. PAULSEN. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor and recognize Minnesota 
Rabbi Harold Kravitz for his national leadership as chair of the board 
for MAZON: A Jewish Response to Hunger.
  As Rabbi Kravitz's term as chair comes to an end, I want to thank him 
for the work he has done both in Minnesota and across the country in 
the fight against poverty and for his work on child advocacy.
  He has received numerous awards for his efforts and for his 
leadership, including being named one of America's Most Inspiring 
Rabbis by Jewish Daily Forward. However, it is more than awards, Madam 
Speaker, because anyone who has met Rabbi Kravitz will tell you, it is 
a passion that he has for the causes that he advocates for that brings 
his success.
  I wish Rabbi Kravitz success in moving forward and the best as he 
moves on to new endeavors, which I am sure will include many continued 
projects to make the world a better and safer and just place. His 
service and commitment to helping our community and the causes that he 
champions have made a significant difference, and we thank him for his 
tireless efforts.
