RECOGNIZING THE PIERRE de MANDEVILLE CHAPTER OF THE NATIONAL SOCIETY OF 
                THE DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN REVOLUTION

 Mr. CASSIDY. Mr. President, I rise today to recognize the 
remarkable patriotism of the Pierre de Mandeville Chapter of the 
National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution.
  The Daughters of the American Revolution was founded in 1890 for 
women who can trace their lineage back to the patriots who fought in 
the American War for Independence. Today, the organization boasts 
approximately 190,000 members and 3,000 chapters across the country.
  Since the chapter's founding in 2008, the Pierre de Mandeville 
Chapter has dedicated itself to service, historic preservation, and 
community initiatives. Its members devote thousands of hours each year 
to reading books to schoolchildren and organizing care packages for 
troops overseas. Next year, the Pierre de Mandeville Chapter will 
gather to celebrate the 250th anniversary of the United States of 
America.
  On behalf of the people of Louisiana and all Americans, I applaud the 
patriotism and selfless service of the Pierre de Mandeville Chapter of 
the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution. These 
women exemplify what it means to be an American. May their celebration 
marking the 250th anniversary of the United States be a joyous 
one.
