ALIX KLEIN'S BAT MITZVAH
(Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I am delighted to wish a happy bat
mitzvah to a wonderful young lady in my congressional district, Alix
Klein. She recently celebrated her bat mitzvah surrounded by family and
friends and chose to mark the occasion with more than just a party, but
with a concert to benefit those less privileged than she is. Alix's
kindness and generosity has made a difference in the lives of the young
patients of Alyn Hospital and Rehabilitation Center in Israel. These
patients have physical disabilities.
Alix has demonstrated a maturity beyond her years, and she serves as
a role model for her fellow teenagers. Alix's selfless contributions
will provide much-needed support for these patients and their families
in Israel.
