                     IN RECOGNITION OF THOMAS YODER

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JOHN JOYCE

                            of pennsylvania

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, February 18, 2021

  Mr. JOYCE of the Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise to congratulate 
Thomas Yoder on his appointment to Huntingdon Borough's newlyformed 
human relations commission.
  The goal of the commission is to ensure equal access to employment, 
housing, and other public services to all people, regardless of race, 
sex, ethnicity, and other protected categories. Local governments have 
a responsibility to ensure the constitutional and legal rights of their 
citizens are observed, and I know that leaders like Mr. Yoder in 
Huntingdon take that responsibility seriously.
  On behalf of Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, I thank Mr. 
Yoder for his leadership and service to Huntingdon Borough and 
congratulate him on being appointed to this commission.
