             PHILADELPHIA'S MOST DISTINGUISHED WARD LEADERS

  (Mr. BRENDAN F. BOYLE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission 
to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his 
remarks.)
  Mr. BRENDAN F. BOYLE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, in commemoration 
of Black History Month, I am honored to be joined by six of 
Philadelphia's most distinguished ward leaders and want to ensure that 
their contributions to our city remain enshrined in our historical 
Congressional Record for future generations to recognize.
  Ms. El Amor M. Brawne Ali of Ward 37, Mr. Arthur Green of Ward 14, 
Shirley Gregory of Ward 49, Peter Lyde of Ward 61, Renee McNear of Ward 
20, and Sharon Vaughn of Ward 42 all take after the long lineage of 
Philadelphians who advanced our democracy towards an increasingly 
inclusive system.
  Mr. Speaker, I extend to them our most sincere gratitude for their 
leadership on behalf of our shared constituencies and look forward to 
honoring them here at the Capitol later this afternoon.
