   CONGRATULATING THE NATE MACK ELEMENTARY AND GREENSPUN JUNIOR HIGH 
                             ROBOTICS TEAMS

  (Mrs. LEE of Nevada asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mrs. LEE of Nevada. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of Nevada's Third 
Congressional District, I rise today to congratulate the robotics teams 
at Nate Mack Elementary and Greenspun Junior High School for advancing 
to the VEX Global Robotics Competition.
  Nate Mack and Greenspun schools will be representing Nevada in the 
global robotics competition in Louisville, Kentucky, beginning April 27 
through May 1.
  Though these communities served by Nate Mack and Greenspun face 
challenges, these students will proudly show the rest of the world the 
great diversity and intellect in Nevada's Third District.
  On International Women's Day, it is only fitting that I recognize 
that these teams embrace girl-powered movement in STEAM and are 50 
percent girls.
  Just this week, I visited the Nate Mack and Greenspun teams and 
talked to the students about their experience. I even got to test-drive 
a robot, which was pretty cool.
  Today, I want to congratulate the Nate Mack Elementary and Greenspun 
Junior High School robotics teams, thank them on behalf of the people 
of Nevada's Third District for representing us at the VEX World 
Robotics Competition, and wish them the best of luck.
