“Mr. Speaker, I am proud to rise today to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Jackson Health System. Jackson Memorial Hospital first opened its doors in south Florida a century ago as a 13-bed community hospital. In the years since, Jackson has grown to become one of the Nation's largest and most renowned public hospital systems. But, throughout the many periods of growth and expansion, Jackson has remained true to its core mission: to build and improve the health of our community by providing the best possible care for Miami's residents. Mr. Speaker, by caring for those most in need, Jackson Health System has created a solid foundation that has empowered our families to thrive. Congratulations to their leader, Carlos Migoya, and all of the staff of Jackson Health System on a century of excellence and care to our community. I thank them for continuing to serve as stewards of Jackson's legacy and for continuing to use healthcare to improve people's lives and to help shape their bright futures. ____________________”
