                                 ______

                       Monday, December 23, 2019

  Mr. PAPPAS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the Daughters of 
Penelope, in honor of the upcoming 90th anniversary of the 
organization. The Daughters of Penelope promotes the ideals and 
traditions of Hellenism in America, focusing on service to one's 
community.
  For nearly a century, they have remained steadfast in promoting the 
rich traditions of Hellenism, civic responsibility, and family through 
their philanthropic and educational efforts. The Daughters of Penelope 
have not only maintained these traditions within the Greek community, 
but also shared them with our larger communities and without a doubt 
made them a better place for everyone to work and live.
  On behalf of my constituents in New Hampshire's First Congressional 
District, I want to thank the Daughters of Penelope for the decades of 
commitment to our shared ideals. I hope they all enjoy celebrating this 
exciting milestone.
