  Mr. FOSTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join the Joliet Region 
Chamber of Commerce in congratulating BMO Harris Bank as it is honored 
at the 39th Annual Salute to Accomplishment Dinner.
  For over a century, BMO Harris Bank has invested in Joliet, where it 
currently has five branches employing 61 people. Partnering with 
community organizations and local governments, BMO Harris Bank has 
worked on a number of initiatives to improve the quality of life 
throughout the community including investing in health care research 
and community service projects.
  Additionally, many BMO Harris Bank employees serve on boards and 
committees, and are members of various local non-profit organizations, 
including the Joliet Region Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Catholic 
Charities of the Diocese of Joliet, the Greater Joliet Area YMCA, the 
Will County Council on Economic Development, and the Joliet Park 
District.
  Again, I would like to congratulate BMO Harris Bank and thank its 
employees for being a driving force of change in our community.
