                      Thursday, September 28, 2017

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Wheat Ridge Poultry and Meats for receiving the City of Wheat Ridge's 
Business of the Year Award for 2017.
  The Business of the Year Award recognizes local businesses who 
demonstrate a commitment to their community, strong management 
practices and are a positive reflection of the City of Wheat Ridge's 
values.
  As noted in their mission and vision statement, ``Your local butcher 
has been on duty since 1942 offering fresh cuts of beef, pork and 
chicken served from our fresh meat case. Add simplicity, variety and 
freshness to your family table. Our poultry comes from farms where the 
birds roam free and animals have spacious barns. Our selection of jams 
and jellies offers nothing but the freshest fruits and finest 
ingredients.''
  I applaud Wheat Ridge Poultry and Meats for being the recipient of 
this well-deserved honor by the City of Wheat Ridge, and I congratulate 
them on their success.
