  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Jalisco International, Inc. for receiving the 2017 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. Founded in 1985, Jalisco International is a family and 
minority-owned prime contractor that specializes in the construction of 
cement roads, bridges, and walls. The company contributed to the E. 
104th Avenue and Highway 85 improvements in 2012 through 2013.
   In addition, the company is extremely active in charitable giving 
throughout the metro area. Jalisco International employees volunteer on 
various community boards and with local organizations and Jalisco 
International supports Colorado CASA and domestic violence charities 
women's shelters. Along with these charitable acts, Jalisco 
International donated playground equipment to local elementary schools 
in 2016.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Jalisco International for 
this well-deserved recognition by Commerce City.
