                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 12, 2017

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Janya Ram of 
Sugar Land, TX, for earning her Girl Scout Gold Award.
  The Gold Award is the highest achievement a Girl Scout can earn. To 
earn this distinguished award, Janya had to spend at least 80 hours 
developing and executing a project that would benefit the community and 
have a long-term impact on girls as well. For her Gold award project, 
she taught self-defense workshops at the Boys and Girls Club in 
Stafford. Janya wanted to take the skills she learned in her karate 
classes and help girls in her community protect themselves in unsafe 
situations.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Janya Ram for earning her Girl Scout Gold 
Award. We are confident she will have continued success in her future 
endeavors. We are very proud.
