HONORING STAYING HOME CORPORATION

Congressional Record, Volume 170 Issue 185 (Thursday, December 12, 2024) [Congressional Record Volume 170, Number 185 (Thursday, December 12, 2024)] [House] [Page H7116] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] {time} 0915 HONORING STAYING HOME CORPORATION (Mr. ALFORD asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. ALFORD. Madam Speaker, today I rise to honor our December Small Business of the Month, Staying Home Corporation. This fantastic business in Harrisonville, Missouri, offers a wide range of products that allow folks in the Midwest to live more comfortably in their own homes. Owners, Mike and Natalie Vogt, share their story about how they came to own Staying Home. Their hope is to provide jobs to those in need, donate to causes that the Lord directs, and create a company that continues those goals. Not only are Staying Home Corporation's products beautifully designed, but they are also brilliantly functional, reliable, and affordable. From elevators to stair lifts, ramps, and storm shelters, this business elevates home life and safety with their durable products. Each product is beautifully crafted and expertly engineered in the United States. Madam Speaker, I congratulate Staying Home Corporation, our December Small Business of the Month. ____________________
