  Mr. MORAN. Mr. Speaker Pro Tempore, I rise today to recognize the 
175th anniversary of Carthage, Texas.
  Carthage, a vibrant and historic city nestled in the heart of East 
Texas, is celebrating its 175th anniversary on November 11, 2023. This 
remarkable milestone is a testament to the resilience, spirit, and rich 
heritage that has shaped the community of Carthage over the years.
  Since its founding in 1848, Carthage has grown from a humble 
settlement to a thriving city that stands as a beacon of progress and 
unity. The city's commitment to fostering a strong sense of community 
and preserving its unique heritage is truly commendable.
  Carthage stands as a shining example of what can be achieved when a 
community comes together with a shared vision and a commitment to 
excellence. I urge all of my colleagues to join me in recognizing and 
celebrating the 175th anniversary of Carthage's founding. 
Congratulations to Carthage on this momentous milestone. May the next 
175 years be filled with continued growth, prosperity, and community 
pride. Happy anniversary, Carthage.
