                           HON. PETE AGUILAR

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 23, 2016

  Mr. AGUILAR. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize Toni Momberger, a 
dedicated former editor and journalist who recently retired from our 
local paper, the Redlands Daily Facts in Redlands, California, after a 
sterling career. Ms. Momberger has been a staple in the Inland Empire 
community as an advocate for civic engagement, accountability and 
transparency in San Bernardino County.
  In 2011, Ms. Momberger was named editor of the Redlands Daily Facts 
and was soon after recognized for her efforts when she was awarded 
Journalist of the Year by Digital First Media. Her ability to engage 
the Redlands community and to give a voice to our region has been an 
invaluable service for which we will always be grateful.
  As a loyal reader of the Redlands Daily Facts and as a Redlands 
resident raising my family in this community, I thank Ms. Momberger for 
her hard work and accomplishments that have pushed our region forward. 
I also commend her on her achievements as a journalist and community 
leader, and thank her for bringing important resources and stories from 
our region into Redlands households each and every day. She leaves 
behind a legacy of journalistic excellence that will be remembered by 
all who read and appreciated her work.
