RECOGNIZING NATIONAL SALVATION ARMY WEEK
(Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize
National Salvation Army Week and to honor an organization that has been
a pillar of support and hope in communities all across this country.
Since its founding in 1865, the Salvation Army has provided food,
shelter, and hope to millions, responding to disasters, helping
individuals overcome addiction, and supported families in times of
crisis. The Salvation Army is a beacon of hope across this Nation.
H.R. 404 recognizes and celebrates National Salvation Army Week and
also commends the Red Kettle Campaign and honors the countless
volunteers, donors, and officers who make the Salvation Army's mission
possible.
I have seen their impact firsthand in eastern North Carolina, where
they bring disaster relief, dignity, and compassion to those who need
it most.
Mr. Speaker, I offer my heartfelt thanks and commit to continuing our
support. I thank the Salvation Army for lifting our communities daily
and doing the most good.
