                      Thursday, February 11, 2021

  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to 
congratulate Jerome Kater of Shippensburg, Pennsylvania, who recently 
received the Jefferson Award from CBS 21 News.
  As president of the board at Katie's Place, Mr. Kater has worked 
tirelessly to devote his time and resources to helping the people of 
Shippensburg. Under his leadership, Katie's Place serves as a 
distribution site for charitable goods and services. For his community 
efforts, Mr. Kater received the 8 Who Cares Award in November--another 
testament to his spirit of service. In addition to his volunteer work, 
Mr. Kater also serves as a member of the Shippensburg University Police 
Department. Through it all, he credits God with giving him a heart for 
service.
  Jerome Kater is a selfless leader and exceptional role model. On 
behalf of the 13th District of Pennsylvania, I thank Mr. Kater for his 
service to the Shippensburg community, and I congratulate him and his 
family on this remarkable honor.
