  Mr. DEUTCH. Madam Speaker, today I rise to honor Linda Eidinger for 
her years of dedicated service to the South Florida community. After 
twenty years as a union officer in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Linda 
moved to South Florida where she has lived a life of community service 
and activism. Linda is a proud mother and grandmother, and her roots in 
union work inspired her to continue to fight on behalf of working 
families everywhere.
  As president and an active member of many civic organizations, Linda 
engaged her community and brought people together to advance noble 
causes. As a leader in the American Association of University Women and 
the Organization for Rehabilitation through Training, Linda was a 
strong believer in the power of education and worked to ensure that 
everyone has access to an education to enable them to succeed in life.
  Linda was also president of the Fort Lauderdale Democrats By The Sea 
Club where she fought for working families and other causes while 
making simple meetings enjoyable and memorable. Linda was an excellent 
moderator and brought a wide range of thoughtful speakers to various 
events and meetings. Environmental stewardship is also an important 
cause to Linda, who participated in and organized events such as 
recycling drives, beach cleanups, and other activities to protect the 
local environment.
  Linda has been a selfless, dedicated, and positive member of her 
family and her community, fighting for important causes like education, 
environmental protection, and so many others.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Linda 
Eidinger, and her service to Fort Lauderdale and Florida's 22nd 
Congressional District.
