  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate David 
Daugherty on his retirement as President of the Goshen Chamber of 
Commerce and to thank him for his 14 years of serving northern Indiana 
Hoosiers.
  As Chamber president, David was committed to fostering opportunities 
that advanced our growing workforce, supported existing businesses, 
attracted new ones, and united our community under a common vision for 
a brighter future. I am grateful for the outstanding leadership and 
insight David brought to the Chamber. In tackling important issues like 
redevelopment, our community saw David's keen ability to build valuable 
relationships among community members and strong partnerships with 
education and government leaders.
  David's work at the Chamber was guided by the values of integrity, 
respect, collaboration, and the belief that thriving businesses build 
stronger communities. A forward thinker, David has consistently led 
efforts that aim to improve the quality of life for Hoosiers, their 
families, and our local businesses. In doing so he encouraged greater 
inclusion and empowerment through the Chamber's efforts to work 
``Together, Growing Goshen.''
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of Indiana's 2nd District I want to thank 
David for all he has done to make Goshen a wonderful place to live and 
work. His impact on the community is sure to last far into the future, 
and I have no doubt the Chamber will continue to honor David's legacy

by working to strengthen our business community and welcome growth and 
innovation.
