             RECOGNIZING NATIONAL FOOD SERVICE EMPLOYEE DAY

  (Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
National Food Service Employee Day.
  The food service workers at hospitals and care facilities across 
Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District work each and every day to 
ensure that patients are fed the healthy and nutritious meals that they 
need.
  Last month, I had the honor to meet the food service staff at the 
Conemaugh Miners Medical Center in Cambria County. Each and every one 
of them showed their firm commitment to the patients at the hospital, 
and it is unparalleled. Far too often, their work goes unrecognized.
  Today, please join me in recognizing these men and women for their 
work and for their compassion for the sick and the injured as they 
heal. Their outstanding public service should not go unnoted.
