Mr. Speaker, as Hanukkah begins, I want to wish the Jewish community in Iowa and across the country a happy and meaningful holiday. Hanukkah is a time to celebrate light, tradition, and the strength of family and faith. This season, as families gather to light the menorah and share their meals, I hope they find moments of peace, joy, and reflection. Hanukkah reminds us that even in challenging times, we can always find hope and light. To all those who are celebrating, I send my warmest wishes for a wonderful Hanukkah filled with love and happiness. May your homes be filled with warmth, and may this season bring you closer to those you cherish most. Happy Hanukkah. {time} 1015 Congratulating Iowa Lieutenant Governor Chris Cournoyer
