COVID-19 TASK FORCE AND CITIZEN CORPS OF DELAWARE COUNTY
(Ms. SCANLON asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. SCANLON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize the incredible
staff of the Delaware County COVID-19 task force, led by Rosemarie
Halt, for their amazing work, along with the thousands of volunteers
from the DelCo Medical Reserve Corps and the DelCo Citizen Corps who
have created and implemented new systems to test, feed, and vaccinate
tens of thousands of people in our community.
These folks have been working day and night to help guide the
residents of Delaware County through the challenges of a once-in-a-
century pandemic. In an ever-changing landscape, they have distributed
supplies, coordinated communication, and are now helping to ensure that
everyone gets vaccinated.
I am proud to honor them today during National Volunteer Week to
celebrate those working behind the scenes to get us back to normal.
Rosemarie, her staff, and the DelCo volunteers have been critical to
the response and relief efforts in our district. For over a year, it
has been all hands on deck, and we cannot thank them enough for their
service.
