                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                          Friday, May 23, 2025

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
National Public Works Week, which takes place from May 18-24, 2025, and 
to offer a special greeting to the City of Anniston Public Works 
Department.
  Our public works professionals dedicate their time and talent to 
maintaining the infrastructure and facilities essential to public 
health and our quality of life. In Anniston, that work is carried out 
under the capable leadership of David Arnett and Supervisory staff who 
oversees a dedicated team of 58 employees.
  Without the efforts of the Public Works Department, essential 
services we all rely on, like safe roads, clean public spaces and 
functional public buildings--simply could not be provided. The Anniston 
Public Works team works every day to rebuild, improve and safeguard our 
transportation systems, structures and facilities.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing National Public Works Week 
and thanking the City of Anniston's hardworking Public Works 
professionals, engineers, managers and employees for their unwavering 
commitment to help maintain our city's health, safety and advancing the 
quality of life.
