                         Tuesday, July 30, 2019

  Mr. HUIZENGA. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor and celebrate the 
40th Anniversary of Eagle Alloy, a local business that proudly serves 
the West Michigan community.
  Eagle Alloy is a company that provides various types of advanced 
metal castings to a variety of customers all over the nation. Since 
1979, the Eagle Alloy headquarters and it's manufacturing facilities 
have all been located in Muskegon, Michigan, and has become one of the 
largest private employers in the community.
  The founders of Eagle Alloy, Mark Fazakerly and John Workman, are two 
individuals I proudly call close friends and have always held a 
customer-first attitude when running their business. In fact, Mark and 
John still work closely with their very first customer even after 40 
successful years.
  Safety and worker satisfaction are also key components to the Eagle 
Alloy workplace. Eagle Alloy will be celebrating an incredible 500,000 
consecutive work hours with no accidents alongside their 40th 
Anniversary.
  In 2015, Eagle Alloy was awarded ``Metal Caster of the Year'' by the 
American Foundry Society. A few years later in 2018, Eagle Alloy was 
honored as the ``Michigan Manufacturer of the Year'' by the Michigan 
Manufacturers Association.
  Madam Speaker, please join me in congratulating John, Mark, and all 
of the employees and families of Eagle Alloy for 40 years of dedicated 
service to West Michigan and our country's manufacturing base.
