BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, throughout the last years, the Biden administration waged war on our domestic energy sector, raising prices for each and every American.

This week, House Republicans will vote on the Protecting American Energy Production Act to ensure that States keep control of hydraulic fracking and that our energy resources continue to flow.

Following President Trump's flurry of executive orders to secure our domestic energy production, my colleagues and I in the House will continue to unleash American energy so that we can lower prices, attain energy independence, and create good-paying jobs for Americans. Honoring Winell Zaitz Farm

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Winell Zaitz Farm for being recognized as one of Pennsylvania's Century Farms.

The Zaitz Farm, purchased in 1875, spans 129 acres and is now being passed down to the family's fifth generation. Carol and her family continue to farm the land, which includes a historic farmhouse built before the Civil War and a barn from 1880.

On behalf of everyone in Pennsylvania's 13th Congressional District, I congratulate Carol Winell Zaitz and her entire family on their family farm's designation as a Century Farm. I thank them for their enduring commitment to one of our State's most vital industries, and that is agriculture. Honoring Presbyterian Village's Centennial

BREAK IN TRANSCRIPT

Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the Presbyterian Village in Hollidaysburg, Pennsylvania, which is celebrating its 100th anniversary.

Founded as a Presbyterian home, doors were opened in 1925 to 22 women and quickly expanded over the following decades to include men, women, and couples.

Having treated residents at this facility, I have seen the dedication of the entire staff who ensure accessibility to the services and the resources that are essential in our seniors' lives.

Always showing our fellow community members love and respect, I congratulate the Presbyterian Village for a century of commitment to the Blair County community.
