HONORING NEW BALTIMORE 2026 CITIZEN OF THE YEAR JOHN J. DAILEY Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 134 (Thursday, August 20, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 134 (Thursday, August 20, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E793] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING NEW BALTIMORE 2026 CITIZEN OF THE YEAR JOHN J. DAILEY ______ HON. LISA C. McCLAIN of michigan in the house of representatives Thursday, August 20, 2026 Mrs. McCLAIN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize John J. Dailey, a longtime New Baltimore resident and the City of New Baltimore's 2026 Citizen of the Year. For more than five decades, John has dedicated his time and talents to strengthening the communities he calls home. As a professional community planner, he has helped Macomb County plan for the future and grow, working with local governments, businesses, and residents on planning, zoning, and community development. However, John's commitment to service extends well beyond his professional career. He has spent decades giving back to New Baltimore, serving on the Planning Commission, the Board of Review, and the Board of Zoning Appeals. He has also supported organizations throughout the community and has spent nearly 30 years coaching softball at Regina High School. John's dedication to New Baltimore and his willingness to give his time, experience, and energy to others are exactly what make a community strong. His recognition as Citizen of the Year is a fitting tribute to a lifetime of public service. Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating John J. Dailey on being named New Baltimore's 2026 Citizen of the Year and in thanking him for all he has done for the community he is proud to call home. ____________________
