  Mr. DOLD. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the men and women of the 
Lake County Forest Preserve District and their 100-year vision for 
protecting Lake County's unique and precious environment.
  Led by Executive Director Ty Kovach, they have assembled a bold, 100-
year vision for how to preserve our wildlife and this natural resource, 
not just for us today, but for our children and our children's 
children.
  Mr. Speaker, the Lake County Forest Preserve District wants to ensure 
future generations can reap the benefits from a healthy and resilient 
environment and understand that the only way to ensure a better future 
is to make changes today. Their education and leadership on 
conservation issues will go a long way to protecting this incredible 
resource.
  Mr. Speaker, I thank them for their efforts and humbly stand by their 
side to continue to champion the importance of protecting our 
environment.
  And that is just the way it is.
