  Mr. HIMES. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and congratulate 
Rachel Fried

[[Page E544]]

Dayan for her tireless work on behalf of Congregation Agudath Sholom. 
Her devotion to the congregational family at Agudath Sholom, the local 
Jewish community in Stamford and to the well-being of Jews worldwide is 
nothing short of inspiring. The community of southwestern Connecticut 
is stronger, richer and more inclusive because of the work that she 
does.
  It is my unique honor to recognize Rachel for her unyielding 
dedication to her faith and her unparalleled efforts to advance the 
cause of Jewish organizations around the world. Rachel led the 
Congregation Agudath Sholom rebuilding committee in restoring the 
synagogue and in doing so, helped spread the core Jewish value of 
repairing the world.
  Madam Speaker, I ask that you and my colleagues join me in 
congratulating Rachel on her immense accomplishments.
