DALLAS — On October 3, U. S. Congressman Jeb Hensarling’s (TX-05) Deputy Chief of Staff Brian Chase presented a DVD and printed copy of Hensarling’s statement in the Congressional Record to the Lake Highlands Military Moms and the Lake Highlands Exchange Club (LHEC).
A copy of the text is provided below:
“Madam Speaker, today I would like to recognize the Lake Highlands Exchange Club and Lake Highlands Military Moms.
“Recently, the Lake Highlands Exchange Club and the Lake Highlands Military Moms joined together to ensure that our service men and women are receiving the local recognition they deserve for their heroic efforts. The members of the Lake Highlands Exchange Club and Lake Highlands Military Moms created posters, similar to the posters for athletes, cheerleaders, and band members in area high schools, featuring photographs of 54 military men and women from Lake Highlands’ community in training or serving our nation in uniform.
“In 2005, Rhonda Russell began collecting the names of military mothers and formed the support group known as Military Moms. Today, they meet once a month to exchange stories, updates and photographs of their children overseas.
“Madam Speaker, on behalf of the Fifth District of Texas, I am honored to be able to recognize the Lake Highlands Exchange Club and Lake Highlands Military Moms for their continued efforts in honoring the brave Americans that have gone into harm’s way so that we could enjoy the blessings of liberty and prosperity.”
