Michelle Fischbach said "I rise to congratulate Dominique Claseman and Ahren Jurgensen of Olivia, Minnesota, on raising nearly $120,000 for a veterans memorial in their hometown. Mr. Speaker, 3 years ago, Dominique raised over $77,000 to construct a memorial for veterans. Since then, he has enlisted in the U.S. Army and is currently completing his basic training. In less than a year, his younger brother, Ahren, who also intends to join the military after high school, raised $40,000 to expand on the memorial, installing additional plaques, benches, flags, and pavers. I congratulate Dominique and Ahren on their amazing achievements, and I thank them for their service to their community and to their country." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
