                           HON. DANIEL MEUSER

                       Tuesday, November 19, 2019

  Mr. MEUSER. Madam Speaker, it is with great admiration that I rise 
today to congratulate First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union of 
Eastern Pennsylvania on receiving the Milestone Award from the Greater 
Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce.
  The Milestone Award is presented to a member of the chamber that has 
reached a significant landmark in business, a high point of superior 
commitment to the community and brings a notable measure of pride to 
The Chamber and the entire Lehigh Valley. First chartered in 1959 to 
serve the employees of Western Electric in Allentown, Pennsylvania as 
WeAllen Federal Credit Union, the First Commonwealth Federal Credit 
Union celebrates 60 years of service to the people of Eastern 
Pennsylvania this year. In the decades since its founding, FCFCU has 
expanded products and services, and opened membership to employees of 
several companies in the Lehigh Valley. Expanding their service to the 
people of the Lehigh Valley, FCFCU has opened offices in Lehighton and 
Kutztown, now serving over 800 companies and their employees as the 
largest credit union in the Lehigh Valley.
  On behalf of the U.S. House of Representatives and the citizens of 
Pennsylvania's Ninth Congressional District, I ask my colleagues to 
join me in congratulating First Commonwealth Federal Credit Union on 
this great honor and thank them for their 60-years serving our 
community.
