                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, July 26, 2017

  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, today I offer my sincere congratulations to 
my constituent, Delilah Rumburg, on her upcoming retirement after more 
than 23 years of service as Chief Executive Officer of the Pennsylvania 
Coalition Against Rape (PCAR).
  Delilah began her service to our community in 1981, at ACCESS York, a 
domestic violence shelter in the 4th Congressional District. In her own 
words, she knew she found her life's work and later joined PCAR as its 
CEO in 1995. Since then, she has lead PCAR's tremendous growth and 
outreach to communities in Pennsylvania and throughout the Nation. 
Delilah served on the Pennsylvania Task Force for Child Protection, as 
the Civilian Deputy Co-Chair of the Department of Defense Task Force on 
Sexual Assault in the Military Services, and as Co-Chair of the U.S. 
Department of Defense Task Force on Sexual Harassment and Violence at 
the Military Service Academies.
  Delilah's tireless dedication, professionalism and passion towards 
ending sexual violence has touched the lives of countless people and 
challenged all with whom she served to be the best. Her legacy of 
service to our community and Nation truly is admirable.
  On behalf of Pennsylvania's Fourth Congressional District, I commend 
and congratulate Delilah Rumburg on her tireless service, and wish her 
and her family continued great success in their future adventures.
