HONORING IVETTE DOMINGUEZ DRAWE, OWNER AND PRESIDENT OFALPINE BUICK GMC

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. JASON CROW

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 29, 2020

  Mr. CROW. Madam Speaker, it is my honor today to recognize the 
accomplishments of Ms. Ivette Dominguez Drawe who will be honored by 
The Chamber of Northwest Douglas County as a ``Woman Who Soars.''
  Ms. Dominguez Drawe is an outstanding businesswoman. She is one of 
just 13 Hispanic female car dealership owners among thousands of 
General Motors dealerships nationwide. Her first location, opened in 
Denver in 2007, consistently outperforms any other Buick GMC dealership 
in Denver.
  In 2017 and 2018, Ivette acquired struggling dealerships in Illinois 
and quickly turned them into thriving, profitable businesses. She 
purchased Alpine Buick GMC South in late 2018 and Post Oak Toyota in 
late 2019. In Summer 2020, she will officially open Alpine Buick GMC's 
hallmark location in Douglas County, Colorado.
  Ivette currently serves on the Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce 
Board, on the Habitat for Humanity of Metro Denver Board, and is 
immediate past chair of GM's Minority Development Dealership Council. 
She also supports local women and families through her dealership's 
Alpine Cares program, which grants up to $15,000 per year to 
organizations such as the Colorado Ovarian Cancer Alliance and is a 
sponsor of Habitat for Humanity annual builds. Ivette and Alpine Buick 
GMC are also longtime supporters of Children's Hospital Colorado.
  A tireless volunteer, advocate, and community supporter, I can think 
of few others more deserving of this honor and I congratulate Ms. 
Dominguez Drawe for being recognized as a ``Woman Who Soars.''
