                      Thursday, November 10, 2022

  Mr. KILMER. Madam Speaker, I would like to take a moment to 
commemorate the life of Dale W. Johnson--a leader of the Makah Tribe 
who recently passed away.
  Dale Johnson served as Chairman of the Makah Tribal Council and the 
Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission. He led efforts to restore the 
Makah halibut, black cod, and whiting fisheries. Dale was also active 
within community sporting activities including basketball, football, 
and the traditional war canoe races. I was grateful for his 
partnership, and I was always honored to work with him on the critical 
issues impacting his Tribe.
  I am humbled to speak in recognition of Dale. I join his family and 
the Makah Tribe in mourning his passing, but also in recognizing that 
his good work will contribute to the community for generations to come.
