  Mr. DENHAM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge a group of 
patriotic Republican women who, 60 years ago, established the Tracy 
Republican Women, Federated, for the benefit of like-minded women, to 
educate and inform themselves and others. It is an honor to 
congratulate them on their 60th Anniversary.
  Over the years, club members have contributed countless hours 
volunteering for candidates who support the principles and core values 
of the Republican Party. The group has registered hundreds of new 
voters and reached out to educate the community on the Republican 
Party's beliefs.
  In addition to being club members, many of the women have also served 
in the community as members of the board of California Federation of 
Republican Women (CFRW), as well as the San Joaquin Board of 
Supervisors, San Joaquin Board of Education, City Council, Tracy School 
District, and Republican Central Committee. They have also participated 
in activities such as Relay for Life, sponsoring needy families at 
Christmas time, and supporting our troops both financially and by 
sending care packages have been personally created by the Tracy 
Republican Women, Federated.
  Tracy Republican Women, Federated has looked to the future by 
providing scholarships for young Republican women to help them continue 
to fight for the freedom that is so dear to us all and pursue their 
educational endeavors.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in celebrating with the Tracy Republican 
Women, Federated and the tremendous opportunities that lie ahead in 
their efforts to fulfill their vision for the future. Congratulations 
on their work the past 60 years. I wish them every success in their 
continued endeavors in support of our nation, its freedom, and its 
history.
