Mr. CARTER of Georgia. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize an outstanding team from Savannah, Georgia, the dedicated staff of WTOC-TV and congratulate them on their recent Emmy Award win at the 2025 Southeast Emmy Awards.

This remarkable team was honored with the award for best morning newscast in a smaller market, recognizing their exceptional coverage of Savannah's 200th Saint Patrick's Day celebration, a signature event in the city's history and culture.

WTOC-TV represents the very best in local journalism, combining heart, hustle, and hometown pride. Covering Savannah's Saint Patrick's Day is no small task. It is an all-hands-on-deck event that calls for early mornings, late nights, and unwavering dedication.

Everyone involved in that broadcast played a vital role. From producers and anchors to editors, photographers, and technical staff, it was truly a team effort and it showed. These individuals displayed incredible skill in their respective professions, but also in communication and collaboration with each other.

WTOC's achievement stands as a shining example of professionalism, collaboration, and a deep commitment to fostering a well-informed community.

It is an honor to recognize and congratulate this team today.
