Mr. GARCIA of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize Rey B. Gonzalez on his retirement after more than 30 years of service to the people of Chicago.

As president and CEO of El Valor, Mr. Gonzalez dedicated his life's work to increasing opportunities for children, families, seniors, and persons with disabilities.
