  Mr. VALADAO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Golden State Farm 
Credit for receiving the Lemoore Chamber of Commerce Ag Supporter of 
the Year award at the 2016 Kings County Salute to Ag Banquet.
  Golden State Farm Credit has been dedicated to lending to farmers, 
ranchers, and agribusiness for ninety years, despite difficult economic 
climate. It is the largest financial service provider in California's 
Central Valley. Golden State Farm Credit is a strong supporter of the 
agriculture industry and has helped Central Valley Farmers purchase 
real estate, develop property, and expand dairy facilities.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in recognizing and congratulating Golden 
State Farm Credit for its service to Kings County and for receiving the 
Lemoore Chamber of Commerce Ag Supporter of the Year award at the 2016 
Kings County Salute to Ag Banquet.
