               HONORING THE CITY OF FALLS CHURCH VIRGINIA

                                 ______
                                 

                       HON. DONALD S. BEYER, JR.

                              of virginia

                    in the house of representatives

                      Thursday, September 24, 2020

  Mr. BEYER. Madam Speaker, I rise today in honor of the City of Falls 
Church, Virginia. The City of Falls Church has recently been ranked the 
3rd healthiest community in the United States in 2020 according to the 
U.S. News Healthiest Communities Report.
  Falls Church received nearly a perfect score for measurements 
including population health, education, and a perfect score for local 
economy--the highest score for economic health in the nation.
  Settled more than 300 years ago and situated less than 10 miles from 
the Capitol, Falls Church has had a front row seat to many of the 
nation's most historic moments. Tradition holds that a copy of the 
Declaration of Independence was read from the steps of The Falls 
Church, the city's namesake, in 1776.
  Please join me in honoring the City of Falls Church for achieving 
such a monumental accomplishment.
