HONORING KAY GRANGER Congressional Record, Volume 170 Issue 187 (Tuesday, December 17, 2024) [Congressional Record Volume 170, Number 187 (Tuesday, December 17, 2024)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E1286] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING KAY GRANGER ______ speech of HON. DAN NEWHOUSE of washington in the house of representatives Tuesday, December 10, 2024 Mr. NEWHOUSE. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to recognize a remarkable leader, dedicated public servant, and good friend--Chairwoman Kay Granger. Chairwoman Granger's tenure in public service began long before she came to the United States Congress. From her time as a teacher and businesswoman, to becoming the first female mayor of Fort Worth, she has consistently demonstrated an unwavering commitment to serving her community and her country. As a member of the House Appropriations Committee, I have worked side by side with Chairwoman Granger, and her leadership on the Committee has delivered on real conservative priorities. She has led critical policies that have touched every corner of our Nation--from bolstering our national security and supporting our veterans, to investing in American technology and backing rural America, her work here in Congress will continue to help Americans for decades to come. Her departure from Congress is not just the end of an era for Texas' 12th District, but a significant moment for all of us who had the privilege of serving alongside her. As she begins this new chapter of her life, I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude for her decades of service and wish her the best for all that lies ahead. I thank the Chairwoman for her incredible service to our Nation and the communities across Texas' 12th District. ____________________
