Mrs. KIM. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to celebrate 75 years of leadership and public service by the Municipal Water District of Orange County. This milestone isn't just about longevity. It is about leading through change and planning for the future. Municipal Water District of Orange County was founded on a simple, yet powerful, idea. Regional collaboration is stronger than working alone. By uniting local agencies and securing access to imported water supplies, the district has helped lay the foundation for Orange County's economic growth, public health, and quality of life. Mr. Speaker, 75 years later, Municipal Water District of Orange County remains a model of responsible governance and regional cooperation. It is well-prepared to meet the next 75 years with the same leadership and integrity that has built Orange County into what it is today. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate them on 75 years, and I thank them for serving our community. ____________________
