                       Wednesday, April 10, 2013

  Mr. MARCHANT. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in recognition of the 60th 
anniversary of the Preston West Republican Women. This group organized 
in 1953 and has continued its mission to represent and strengthen the 
voice of women in northern-most developmental areas of Dallas.
  This organization's leadership has provided their community and their 
neighbors with the opportunity to meet and know their representatives 
in local, state and the federal government. These exceptional women 
have worked diligently to recruit citizens and involve them in the 
political process, and promote the understanding of the conservative 
philosophy.
  It is encouraging to see these leaders from Texas's Twenty-Fourth 
District do such great things. I continue to applaud them for their 
accomplishments over the last 60 years in raising awareness of their 
values, promoting the voice of women in North Dallas and being a guard 
for conservative beliefs.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a great privilege to honor the members of the 
Preston West Republican Women for their 60 years of achievement and 
unwavering resolution in building this organization for the 
conservative women of North Dallas. I join their family, friends, and 
colleagues in congratulating them and wishing them continued growth and 
success.
