                     Wednesday, September 27, 2023

  Ms. PETTERSEN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Kami Welch for 
being named an Outstanding Woman in Business by the Denver Business 
Journal.
  Each year, Denver Business Journal chooses 34 exceptional women in 
the Denver metro area who are the area's top executives, entrepreneurs, 
philanthropists, and influencers. This year, Kami was selected for this 
award after 14 years in the Chamber industry, including 10 years with 
the Arvada Chamber of Commerce. She is an outstanding leader, dedicated 
to the success of the Arvada community and focused on supporting women 
in business.
  Kami's efforts to develop meaningful industry and business solutions 
have led to significant improvements in the city's domestic tourism, a 
more diversified economy, and a stronger environment for local and 
small businesses. Those who have had the privilege of working with Kami 
attest to her unwavering commitment to the Arvada community.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the people of Colorado's Seventh 
Congressional District, I thank Kami Welch for her dedicated service to 
Arvada as well as the citizens of Colorado.
