                    in the house of representatives

                       Thursday, October 31, 2019

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
the Golden United for receiving the Golden Mayor's Award for 
Excellence.
   Golden United is a non-partisan, resident-driven effort to engage 
Golden area community members across all walks of life to find common 
ground and act with respect and dignity in strengthening the community. 
Golden United launched in 2017, gathering residents of different 
backgrounds and asking them to identify shared values and initial 
actions. Their mission continued through community forums, rallies, 
annual events, task forces, supporting other community events, and most 
recently, hosting a Candidate Forum for the upcoming election. This 
organization is an example of democracy in action ``of the people, and 
for the people.''
   I congratulate Golden United for receiving this well-deserved honor 
by Mayor Marjorie Sloan. I thank them for their contributions to our 
community.
