   CELEBRATING THE CITY OF WALNUT'S 65th ANNIVERSARY OF INCORPORATION

  (Ms. SANCHEZ asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. SANCHEZ. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 65th birthday 
of the city of Walnut, California.
  On January 20, 2024, the city of Walnut celebrates 65 years since its 
incorporation. A longtime ranching community, the Walnut area was 
primarily used for cattle and sheep grazing, as well as growing wheat, 
grapes, and fruit trees.
  Walnut has since grown into a diverse, successful city that I am 
proud to represent as part of California's 38th Congressional District.
  Walnut is beloved for its historic charm and traditions such as the 
Walnut Family Festival and Winter Jam.
  From the iconic windmill in Suzanne Park to the wildlife sanctuary at 
Mt. SAC to the beautiful groves of walnut trees to its wonderful senior 
center, the city of Walnut has much to offer residents and visitors 
alike.
  I wish a happy birthday to the city of Walnut.
