Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Ms. Sue Else, an extraordinary leader who is retiring as CEO of the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia. Under Ms. Else's leadership, the Girl Scouts continue to thrive, expanding opportunities, deepening community impact, and building the next generation of women leaders. The Legacy of Leadership event that will be held in Savannah is not only a celebration of Girl Scouts' values, but a tribute to Sue's lasting impact on thousands of lives. Ms. Else's passion, integrity, and vision has steered this organization through change and growth, always placing the girls at the center of her work. As the birthplace of Girl Scouts founder Juliette Gordon Low, Savannah is the perfect setting to honor Ms. Else's legacy, which is marked by courage, commitment, and leadership. Mr. Speaker, I join the Girl Scouts of Historic Georgia, the Savannah community, and grateful families across the State in thanking her for her service. We wish her the very best in her well-earned retirement. Her legacy will continue to inspire young girls for years to come. ____________________
