Mr. Speaker, Today I rise to congratulate the Detroit Regional Chamber of Commerce on its 100th Anniversary which it celebrated last week. It is a pleasure and a privilege to commemorate this milestone and celebrate everyone who has contributed to the Chamber’s success.
Remaining true to the original slogan "For the general good of Detroit," the organization’s 253 charter members and numerous successors have been a cornerstone of the Detroit area’s commercial, industrial and municipal advancement for the past 100 years.
Truly, they are rightly proud of their past accomplishments in and future commitment to our community.
It has been an honor to be associated with its members and all their endeavors.
