                       Monday, September 19, 2016

  Mrs. COMSTOCK. Mr. Speaker. I would like to honor the 50th 
anniversary of the Committee for Dulles (CFD). Established in 1966, the 
CFD has worked tirelessly to help Washington Dulles International 
Airport and the economic growth of its region.
  The hard work done by the men and women of the Committee for Dulles 
has helped to make excellent opportunities available to many of my 
constituents and ensure the growth of the Washington Dulles 
International Airport corridor.
  Home to some of our nation's largest and most successful companies, 
the CFD has worked tirelessly to secure the necessary infrastructure to 
maintain these economic staples in place, all while providing a better 
quality of life for the residents of Dulles. The close collaboration of 
the constituents of Virginia's 10th Congressional District is crucial 
to bringing continued prosperity to the region.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join in recognizing the 50th 
anniversary of the Committee for Dulles and thanking them for the hard 
work they do to help stimulate economic growth in the entire region. I 
know the Committee for Dulles will continue to provide excellent 
opportunities for the area in the future, and I wish them all the best.
