                       Wednesday, April 20, 2016

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
A.R. Wilfley & Sons, Inc. for receiving the 2016 Commerce City Business 
on the Move Award.
   The Business on the Move Award recognizes businesses bringing new 
employment, growth in sales or new capital investment to the city in 
the last year. This fifth-generation manufacturer of heavy duty 
centrifugal pumps for chemical and mineral processing has been in 
business for almost 100 years. In 2014, the company acquired a site in 
Commerce City with two buildings totaling 121,000 sq. ft. Extensive 
capital investments were made at the site and helped create 90 new 
manufacturing jobs. A.R. Wilfley & Sons also takes part in extensive 
community service work with the Boys and Girls Club and the George M. 
Wilfley Club, and looks forward to further developing their 
relationship with the Commerce City location.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to the A.R. Wilfley & Sons, Inc. 
for this well-deserved recognition by Commerce City.
