                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. ELIOT L. ENGEL

                    in the house of representatives

                         Monday, April 2, 2018

  Mr. ENGEL. Mr. Speaker, I rise to acknowledge a pillar of the 
Westchester Jewish Council community who has been instrumental in WJC's 
success now for many years, Betsy Bernstein.
  Betsy's involvement with WJC began when her husband, Julian, took 
some time out of his day to get involved in the community. Following 
Julian's tragic passing in 2005, Betsy joined the WJC Board. Betsy co-
chairs and works annually with her sons Michael and David to coordinate 
the Julian Y. Bernstein Distinguished Service Awards, honoring member 
organizations and their dedicated leaders who have enriched our 
Westchester community.
  Betsy is a founding committee member of the Council's Leadership 
Development Institute, and has served on numerous other Council 
committees over the years. Betsy and her husband, Keith Satter, are 
members of both the Jewish Community Center in Harrison and 
Congregation Beth El in Norwalk, CT. Betsy has served as a JCCH trustee 
and Keith currently serves as JCCH President.
  Outside of her WJC commitments, Betsy founded the Bernstein Research 
Group which provides marketing research and consulting services to help 
companies identify ways to make products and services better fit users' 
needs. She earned her MBA from the distinguished Wharton School of the 
University of Pennsylvania and a BA from Goucher College in Towson, MD.
  This year, WJC is honoring Betsy at their 42nd Anniversary Gala for 
all of her incredible work to make the WJC community stronger. They 
could not have picked a more deserving honoree. Congratulations to 
Betsy on receiving the wonderful recognition, and I thank her for all 
her hard work.
