                MOMENT OF SILENCE TO HONOR SAMANTHA WOLL

  (Ms. SLOTKIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)

[[Page H5224]]

  

  Ms. SLOTKIN. Mr. Speaker, today I rise with others from the Michigan 
delegation and onward to recognize Samantha Woll, a former member of my 
staff, a member of the House of Representatives' staff, and a 
passionate advocate who was taken from us on October 21, 2023.
  It is important to me, as I know it is to my colleagues who knew her 
directly, that we honor the way Sam lived.
  From working in my very first congressional office to serving as the 
president of her synagogue in Detroit, Sam had profound faith, not just 
as a Jewish woman but an abiding faith in humanity and a passion for 
interfaith relations, something that right now is more than ever 
important to our country.
  In closing, I ask my colleagues for a moment of silence for Sam, for 
her family, for her community, for our State, and send my deepest 
condolences to her loved ones in Michigan.
