  Ms. FRANKEL of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 
2866, The Boys Town Centennial Commemorative Coin Act. This legislation 
will create a coin to honor Boys Town's longstanding commitment to the 
needs of at-risk children and struggling families in communities across 
America.
  Driven by the belief that every child deserves the opportunity to 
succeed, Boys Town serves children of every race, color, and religion. 
In my district, South Florida Boys Town provides incredible 
opportunities to help children achieve success and pursue their dreams.
  I am pleased to honor Boys Town and I urge my colleagues to vote for 
this legislation and I yield back my time.
