To designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 333 North Sunrise Way in Palm Springs, California, as the "Chairman Richard Milanovich Post Office".

Madam Speaker, I ask unanimous consent that all Members have 5 legislative days in which to revise and extend their remarks and to include extraneous material on this measure.

Madam Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume.

Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 9074 to designate the facility of the United States Postal Service located at 333 North Sunrise Way in Palm Springs, California, as the Chairman Richard Milanovich Post Office.

Richard Milanovich grew up in poverty in Palm Springs. He served as an infantryman in the United States Army from 1960 to 1963 and later returned to the Agua Caliente Band and Cahuilla Indian Reservation.

In 1984, he was elected chairman of the Band. Through his vision and leadership, the Agua Caliente Band were able to make major contributions to the economy of the Palm Springs area.

As chairman, he was invited to the White House to consult with the President and other political officials.

Madam Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 9074, which honors Richard Milanovich, Chairman of the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians.

The son of a Native American mother and Serbian father, Chairman Milanovich grew up in Palm Springs, California, living in a shack and receiving food stamps.

From 1960 to 1963, Milanovich served as an infantryman in the United States Army and later returned to join the Agua Caliente Band of Cahuilla Indians Tribal Council in 1978 in Riverside County, California.

In 1984, he was elected chairman of the Band, a position he would serve in for the next 30 years. Because of his leadership and vision, the Agua Caliente Band became the most prosperous group of Native Americans in the United States and made significant contributions to the Palm Springs area.
