                 CONGRATULATING LEOR TORCHMAN AUERBACH

  (Mr. QUIGLEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. QUIGLEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Leor Torchman Auerbach 
for receiving the 2019 CityPAC Scoop Jackson Award.
  Her service for over 20 years as an advocate and leader in Chicago's 
pro-Israel community make her an ideal recipient for this honor. Since 
the 2000s, Leor has served as a long-time CityPAC board member, and her 
organizational and fundraising approach set the standard that CityPAC 
continues to emulate.
  She has served as the AIPAC Chicago co-chair of the Young Leadership 
Council and is AIPAC's Illinois council member. She leads Americans 
United in Support of Democracy which has organized more than 1,000 
events to cultivate support for the U.S.-Israel relationship.
  As a granddaughter of Holocaust survivors, Leor is a friend and 
supporter to the entire community, and her activism is an inspiration 
and model for us all.
