 HONORING MR. ABDE-ALI EMADI OF PENNSYLVANIA FOR ACHIEVING THE RANK OF 
                              EAGLE SCOUT

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. SCOTT PERRY

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, November 27, 2018

  Mr. PERRY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor and congratulate my 
constituent, Abde-Ali Emadi, for his accomplishment in earning the rank 
of Eagle Scout.
  The Eagle Scout designation is the highest advancement rank in 
Scouting, which only a small number of Boy Scouts earn. The rank is 
performance-based, and must meet high standards that have been well-
maintained over the past century. To earn the rank of Eagle Scout, a 
Boy Scout is obligated to pass specific tests that are organized by 
myriad requirements and merit badges, as well as completing an Eagle 
Scout project to benefit the community.
  Abde-Ali has been recognized as a valuable member of Troop 180, and 
has served in various leadership positions; i.e. Junior Assistant 
Scoutmaster and Senior Patrol Leader. His Eagle Scout Project was to 
clean and stain over 70 picnic tables at the New Kingstown Fire Company 
pavilion, in addition to building four ADA-compliant tables.
  I've long appreciated the commitment of people who demonstrate hard 
work and devote themselves selflessly to serving our communities and 
fellow citizens. On behalf of Pennsylvania's Fourth Congressional 
District, I recognize and congratulate Abde-Ali Emadi on his 
significant accomplishment and community service. I wish him continued 
success and Godspeed in his future adventures.
