  Mr. CONNOLLY. Madam Speaker, I rise to recognize the Vienna Business 
Association (VBA) and to congratulate the incoming members of the 2019 
Board of Directors.
  Vienna is known for its local charm and strong small business 
community. Money Magazine and CNN have both rated Vienna as one of the 
best places to live in the United States. The vibrant community spirit 
exhibited by its residents and local businesses has fostered an 
exceptional quality of life that is cherished by so many.
  The Vienna Business Association is the voice of the greater Vienna 
business community. It promotes business opportunities and development 
through networking and increased interaction between the commercial and 
residential communities within the town.

Its members help maintain Vienna's small town feel by hosting and 
supporting many annual community events.
  The VBA has thrived thanks to the diversity of its members and the 
leadership of its Board.
  I am pleased to include in the Record the following names of the 
incoming members of the 2019 Board of Directors:
  Incoming Chairman: Mark Sweeney; Incoming Board Members: Ann Cole, 
Kari Cannistraro, Michael Amouri, Karen Thayer, Bettina Lawton, Preeti 
Swaminathan, Jeff Bollettino, Greg Kunstbeck, Tim Fricker, Holly 
Siebold.
  Madam Speaker, I ask that my colleagues join me in congratulating the 
incoming board members and in commending the Vienna Business 
Association for their commitment to promoting the business community 
while encouraging social responsibility. I wish them continued success 
in all their future endeavors.
