  Mr. McINNIS. Mr. Speaker, it is a great honor to rise before this 
body of Congress and this nation to recognize the accomplishments of 
Bryanne Salazar of Grand Junction, Colorado. Several years ago, Bryanne 
founded Mothers Inc. to assist other mothers in the difficult and 
important task of child rearing and to provide a forum in which mothers 
around the country could share their advice, experiences and support 
one another financially and socially.
   Mothers Inc. provides many forms of assistance to mothers, including 
financial aid, job training, food, clothing and opportunities to meet 
and form bonds with other mothers. Mothers Inc. is a non-profit 
organization that raises money through bake sales, garage sales, and 
the sale of t-shirts and aprons. Her efforts truly embody the spirit 
and greatness of this nation. Through Mothers Inc., Bryanne has 
contributed greatly to the welfare of many women and children and 
served as an inspiration to those with whom she has come in contact.
   Mr. Speaker, it gives me a profound pleasure to stand before this 
body of Congress today to pay tribute to Bryanne Salazar, a remarkable 
woman who has worked to improve the lives of so many families. The 
children whom Bryanne has helped are the future of this nation and it 
is comforting to know they are in such good hands. Bryanne, thank you 
for your many contributions to the mothers and children of Colorado and 
for your persevering spirit that has inspired so many.
