Today I rise to recognize Monica Lee Silbas and her successful career serving others. She is a Santa Ana girl, I am proud to say, who made it big in Washington, D.C. Mr. Speaker, we back home are very proud of Monica. Her passion for advocacy has made her work a defining voice within the labor movement. As part of the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers, her labor leadership led to the development of their Spanish leadership program. She currently serves on the boards of the Labor Council for Latin American Advancement and the IndustriALL Global Union where her voice impacts the lives of millions of workers across the globe. Mr. Speaker, I thank Monica for her dedication to the community and to the global labor movement. I congratulate Monica on her retirement, and I wish her the best of luck. I know she is not done, and she will continue to work like all good Santa Ana girls do. Honoring the Career of Guadalupe Gomez
