                       Thursday, December 1, 2022

  Mr. LONG. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Jack Stack, the 
President and CEO of SRC Holdings Corporation.
  Jack, a graduate of Elmhurst College, came to SRC in 1979 as the 
Plant Manager of International Harvester after eleven years of direct 
supply chain management experience. In 1983, Stack and the SRC 
employees bought the company from IH and have turned it into what INC. 
magazine has proclaimed ``one of America's most competitive small 
companies''. They currently employ more than 1,800 people, with annual 
sales over $600,000,000. SRC remanufactures gasoline and diesel engines 
for the automotive and off-highway markets, distributes engine kits, 
manufactures power units and remanufactures electrical components, and 
conducts seminars and training programs specializing in all aspects of 
teaching people how to implement open-book management. Jack has 
authored three books on business, The Great Game of Business (1992), A 
Stake in the Outcome (2002) and Change The Game: Saving the American 
Dream by Closing the Gap (2019).
  Jack has been named The Springfield Area Chamber of Commerce's 
``Springfieldian of the Year''; an honor bestowed annually on a local 
community member who has worked to improve the quality of life in 
Springfield. He has also received the Springfield Business Journal's 
Economic Impact ``Lifetime Achievement'' award for outstanding 
professional accomplishments and contributions in the business 
community. INC. Magazine has called him the ``smartest strategist in 
America'' and named him one of twenty-five entrepreneurs selected to 
represent the 25 years INC. has been published. These are just a few of 
his many recognitions.
  On top of his business work, Jack has been active in his local 
community, previously serving as director of Care to Learn, a local 
not-for-profit agency that provides relief to children with emergent 
hunger, health, and hygiene needs. Jack is the founder of the Boys and 
Girls Clubs Invest to Invest Club which was created in order to 
generate a new source of funds for their youth programs and to serve as 
a tool to teach business basics to Club members and provide a friendly 
and competitive venue for the Invest to Invest group members.
  Madam Speaker, Jack Stack has achieved truly great things, and I am 
proud to honor him today.
