  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Madeline 
Castillo of San Jacinto Girl Scout Troop Number 61401 on earning the 
Girl Scout Gold Award, the highest achievement a Cadette can earn. 
Madeline, a senior at Clear Creek High School in League City, achieved 
this honor through her accomplishments in leadership, advocacy, and 
dedication to improving her community.
  Madeline completed her Girl Scout Gold Award project, 
#WeCare4Patients which strives to help hospital patients feel more 
comfortable. Madeline has paired with Health Occupations Students of 
America clubs and other organizations in the area to encourage people 
to donate toys, blankets, games, and other items for local medical 
facilities.
  On behalf of all of the residents of the Twenty-Second Congressional 
District of Texas, I'm pleased to recognize Madeline's Girl Scout 
accomplishment and her contributions to help make our community a 
better place to live. We are all proud of Madeline Castillo and wish 
her the best of luck at Stephen F. Austin University in the fall.
