                         HON. THOMAS MacARTHUR

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, September 7, 2016

  Mr. MacARTHUR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Olympic gold 
medalist Kelsi Worrell, of the Third Congressional District, in her 
recent accomplishments at the 2016 Summer Olympic Games in Rio, and to 
commend her for her outstanding dedication to the sport of swimming.
  Kelsi, who is a resident of Westampton, worked diligently to help the 
United States Women's Swim Team win a gold medal in the women's 4x100m 
medley relay. In addition to her great accomplishment at the Summer 
Olympic Games, Kelsi has continued to be a role model for so many young 
children with aspirations of greatness. Her hard work and determination 
has instilled a great sense of pride within the local communities of 
South Jersey. Her achievements exhibit the great pride with which Kelsi 
represents herself and the United States of America.
  Mr. Speaker, the people of New Jersey's Third Congressional District 
are tremendously honored to have Olympic gold medalist Kelsi Worrell as 
a member of their community, who has shown a desire to represent her 
nation with great honor and has worked continuously to do so to the 
best of her ability. I am honored to recognize her accomplishment and 
dedication to her sport, before the United States House of 
Representatives.
