HONORING LIFE AND LEGACY OF ALLEN PAUL

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 107 (Thursday, June 25, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 107 (Thursday, June 25, 2026)] [House] [Page H4252] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING LIFE AND LEGACY OF ALLEN PAUL (Ms. ROSS asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Ms. ROSS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the life and legacy of Allen Paul, a gifted journalist, author, and storyteller whose work helped preserve and illuminate the history of North Carolina. Allen dedicated his career to telling important stories with depth, accuracy, and humanity. Written alongside his son Mack Paul, one of his final works, ``Miracle Road: The Story of Research Triangle Park,'' captures one of the greatest economic transformations in American history: the rise of Research Triangle Park from a landscape once described as ``possums and pines'' into a global center of innovation, research, and opportunity. The book chronicles the visionaries, scientists, business leaders, and community advocates who helped build the triangle into what it is today. Through meticulous research and compelling storytelling, Allen preserved the history that shaped North Carolina's future. His contributions will continue to educate and inspire generations to come. ____________________
