HONORING DON GRUNEISEN FOR RECEIVING THE PRESTIGIOUS BETSY KAPLAN AWARD
______
HON. ELISE M. STEFANIK
of new york
in the house of representatives
Friday, September 3, 2021
Ms. STEFANIK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Don Gruneisen for receiving the prestigious Betsy Kaplan Award from the St. Lawrence County Republican Committee.
Mr. Gruneisen has been a dedicated community leader in St. Lawrence County for decades. Since he first became active in local politics in the 1980s, he has been a consistent voice for the members of his community and the causes that he believes in. Today, he serves as the St. Lawrence County Republican Committee Treasurer, a Regional GOP Chairman, and as the Potsdam Republican Town Chair.
The Betsy Kaplan Award, named after a former St. Lawrence County Republican Committee Chairperson, is given by the St. Lawrence County Republican Executive Committee to Republicans who go above and beyond to serve their North Country community. Based on Mr. Gruneisen's decades of activism and service, he is undoubtedly deserving of this recognition. On behalf of New York's 21st District, I thank Mr. Gruneisen for his service to the North Country and congratulate him on receiving this award.
