                       REMEMBERING DAVID SAMRICK

  (Ms. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. WASSERMAN SCHULTZ. Madam Speaker, it is with a heavy heart that I 
rise to honor the remarkable life of David Samrick of Fort Lauderdale, 
Florida.
  David's faith and love for the Jewish community were evident in his 
support of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. He served on 
the AIPAC national board since 2015, working closely with Members of 
the United States Congress to strengthen and promote a strong and 
unbreakable U.S.-Israel relationship.
  Through his work with AIPAC, he led citizen activists in building 
relationships with Members of Congress on both sides of the aisle, a 
key to the success of the pro-Israel movement. We worked together to 
address a multitude of issues facing our community, from the scourge of 
anti-Semitism to ensuring we maintain our strong U.S.-Israel 
relationship.
  I am proud to have considered him my very dear friend. I will miss 
his guidance and wisdom but mostly his friendship.
  My heartfelt sympathy goes out to his wife, Susan, and his entire 
family. David was one of a kind, a selfless, compassionate, and 
tireless advocate. May his memory be for a blessing.
