                       Friday, November 16, 2018

  Mr. MESSER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today, on behalf of the entire 6th 
Congressional District of Indiana, to recognize Michael Dora for his 
contribution to our state and Rush County.
  As the former County Chairman, Michael spent years promoting and 
advancing Republican principles in Rush County. He has also served his 
community in a variety of other capacities, including as a volunteer 
EMT, firefighter, and youth sports coach. In 2017, Michael was 
appointed by President Trump to serve as State Director for the United 
States Department of Agriculture's Rural Development in Indiana. The 
impact Michael continues to make on Rush County cannot be overstated, 
and our state is better off today because of his extraordinary 
leadership and service.
  On a personal note, Michael has been a loyal friend and wise adviser 
during my entire tenure in Congress. I want to thank him for his 
friendship and support of my work. I wish him continued success in all 
that God has planned for him and his family.
