                       Tuesday, February 4, 2020

  Ms. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ. Madam Speaker, it is with great pleasure that 
I rise to wish a heartfelt Mazel Tov to Temple Solel of Hollywood, 
Florida on their 50th Anniversary Jubilee.
  The Jewish faith teaches us that we must lift up everyone to make the 
world a better place--Tikkun Olam. For 50 years, the members of Temple 
Solel have humbly done their part to repair the world for all those who 
struggle, for all who are forced to go without, and for everyone who is 
in need of a helping hand. And they do it unconditionally, with 
generosity, and with Gemilut Hasadim--the gift of loving kindness.
  Congratulations to Rabbi Robert Frazen, Rabbi Jeffrey Salkin, Cantor 
Israel Rosen, and all those who have served the congregation over the 
past 50 years. Their decades of leadership, spiritual guidance, and 
service have helped make Temple Solel become one of the most 
progressive faith-based institutions in Broward County. Whether 
educating our community about the dangers of climate change and sea 
level rise or supporting the values of full equality for LGBTQ Jews and 
their families, they have set an example for all to follow.
  I hold a deep admiration for the tremendous kindness the clergy and 
congregants of Temple Solel have shown our community for half a 
century. I wish them much success and joy as they continue to grow for 
the next 50 years.
