                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, October 8, 2025

  Mr. DELUZIO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Darrin Kelly for his 
seven years of service as President of the Allegheny-Fayette Central 
Labor Council.

[[Page E940]]

  Darrin is stepping down in January after leading the labor movement 
in Western Pennsylvania. He leaves behind a legacy as a fighter, an 
organizer, a coalition builder, a strategist, and a fiery champion for 
the dignity of hardworking people and the sanctity of the union way of 
life.
  Darrin is tough as nails. He knows when it's time to build bridges 
and he knows when it's time to stand your ground and fight.
  Darrin Kelly embodies so much of what Western Pennsylvania is all 
about: hard work, the sacred labor movement, and service to country.
  While his time leading the Labor Council may be ending, I know he'll 
never let up for a second fighting hard for workers and this great 
country of ours.
  I congratulate Darrin for all he has done for the labor movement in 
Western Pennsylvania and across America. Fair winds and following seas, 
Shipmate.
