“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate NBC Palm Springs for their remarkable achievement of taking home an Emmy Award at the National Academy of Television Pacific Southwest Chapter. Last month, the NBC Palm Springs team won the Emmy Award for Best Newscast in a Small Market for their coverage of tropical storm Hilary in August of 2023. Our district communities were impacted by this rare, dangerous, and unprecedented tropical storm that hit the desert in inland southern California. Thanks to the coverage of the storm by Tim, Olivia, Tiani, Carmela, Jerry, and News Director David Reese, countless lives were saved. The courage and professionalism of the entire studio prevailed throughout their coverage of the storm. It is my privilege to honor them and their well-deserved award and the invaluable service they provided to ensure our community was kept informed and safe. Mr. Speaker, I congratulate NBC Palm Springs. They have made us all incredibly proud. ____________________”
