NATIONAL SMALL BUSINESS WEEK
(Mr. FITZPATRICK asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. FITZPATRICK. Mr. Speaker, as a member of the Small Business
Committee, I am proud to stand with owners and entrepreneurs in Bucks
County, Pennsylvania, who embody the spirit of American enterprise.
As such, and in honor of National Small Business Week, beginning
Sunday, I am proud to recognize two small businesses in my district
that have recently achieved significant milestones in their respective
industries.
Crossing Vineyards and Winery of Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania,
was named a top 50 Irish-owned small business and will be honored at
the Irish Small Business 50 Awards in Philadelphia.
Additionally, Sabre Systems of Warrington was recently contracted by
the United States Air Force to develop a cutting-edge antenna that
would be more difficult to detect, further strengthening our military
at home and abroad.
I am proud of these local small businesses and so many others in my
district, Mr. Speaker. We must do our part as elected officials to
enable them to thrive and succeed in our diverse and global economy.
