                  RECOGNIZING MARC COMMUNITY RESOURCES

  (Mr. BIGGS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. BIGGS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the special work of 
Marc Community Resources of Mesa, Arizona. Marc is a nonprofit 
organization dedicated to providing education, rehabilitation, and 
other social services to children and adults with physical disabilities 
and developmental health challenges.
  Since 1957, Marc has been committed to helping those with 
disabilities live, learn, work, and play. Each year, Marc helps more 
than 4,000 people overcome the limitations of their disabilities to 
reach their full potential.
  The challenges that the disabled face in day-to-day life are often 
underappreciated, and their achievements in overcoming those challenges 
are frequently overlooked.
  I am sure the employees of Marc would say that it is their patients 
who are the real heroes; and while they courageously battle severe 
challenges, today I rise to commend the heroic efforts of Marc 
Community Resources--its owners, managers, and employees--in the work 
they do. I am grateful for their service to Mesa and the entire east 
valley.
