Washington, D.C.— Congresswoman Uifa’atali Amata in celebration of the Thanksgiving holiday wishes the Territory a Wonderful Thanksgiving!

“…It is a joy to be home in American Samoa for the holiday. During the weeks ahead, through Christmas and at the start of 2024, Congress will continue work on a series of appropriations bills and the yearly Defense bill, so I will keep you informed of funding news for America Samoa, including our veterans and military families.

“Thanksgiving is a lovely opportunity to take time with friends and family, have a break from work and busy lives, and share delicious food with loved ones. Most of all, it’s a special chance to give thanks to God for our blessings.

“May our homes be full of love, joy, and thanksgiving as we celebrate.”

“Oh, that men would give thanks to the LORD for His goodness, And for His wonderful works to the children of men! For He satisfies the longing soul, And fills the hungry soul with goodness.” Psalm 107:8-9 (NKJV)
