           HONORING THE PUBLIC SERVICE OF MR. TERRY McDONALD

                        Friday, October 18, 2019

  Mr. BANKS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Terry McDonald 
for his two decades of service as Mayor of New Haven, Indiana. Since 
his election in 1999, Terry has worked diligently to usher in a new era 
of prosperity for the second-largest city in Allen County.
  Under Terry's leadership, New Haven has seen increases in commercial 
and industrial activity and heralded improvements in its public schools 
and infrastructure. He has brought the city to a new level of 
prominence within our great state and made his constituents proud.
  Above all, Terry has always seen his position not as a job, but as a 
service and a duty. As he does in his role as a minister, Terry seeks 
to use his God-given talents to assist those who need it the most. His 
first priority has always been assisting those around him. Officials at 
all levels of government can learn a great deal from the honesty and 
integrity of men like Mayor Terry McDonald.
  As Terry's time in public office draws to a close, I wish him and his 
family nothing but the very best as he continues his life of service.
