                       Tuesday, February 6, 2018

  Mr. BURGESS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the 
Northwest Metroport Chamber of Commerce as it marks 30 years of service 
to the North Texas community.
  Formed in 1986 as the Roanoke Business Association, this organization 
has enjoyed significant growth, expanding service to include Argyle, 
Haslet, Justin, Northlake, Trophy Club, and Westlake. In its 30 years 
of service, the Northwest Metroport Chamber of Commerce has also grown 
from eight founding members to more than 420. These members--past and 
present--have worked diligently to create, promote, and enhance growth 
for the business community.
  Since its inception, the Northwest Metroport Chamber of Commerce has 
sought to positively impact leadership, stewardship, and business 
relationships for the benefit of all six of the communities it 
represents in the Northwest Metroport region.
  There is no doubt that the Northwest Metroport Chamber of Commerce 
leaders and members have made meaningful contributions to their 
communities and the North Texas region, and I am grateful for their 
steadfast service.
