                        Thursday, June 25, 2015

  Ms. FRANKEL of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate 
Debbie Frazier on winning the Michael Brown Memorial Faces of the 
Community Award. Ms. Frazier is an outstanding member of our community, 
and I am proud to represent her in Florida's 22nd District.
  This distinguished award recognizes community members who have 
dedicated themselves to grassroots organizations that promote LGBT 
pride, diversity, and awareness. Debbie is a prolific advocate and 
leader, and her long list of credentials illustrates her passion for 
public service and promoting LGBT equality.
  In 2010, Ms. Frazier founded the Straight and Gay Alliance in 
Wellington, Florida. Debbie also led a county-wide effort to `Get Out 
the Vote,' which included a social media photo campaign. Currently, she 
serves as the President of the Alliance for Social Justice, a 
grassroots outreach program designed to empower young adults to become 
the leaders of tomorrow. When she is not doing community outreach, she 
works as the executive regional director of the GLBT Democratic Caucus.
  In honor of her award, I am proud to recognize Debbie Frazier and 
thank her for her tireless advocacy and work for our community.
