                        Wednesday, June 16, 2021

  Ms. HERRERA BEUTLER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Jonah Campbell, Clark Hegewald, and Grant Myers of 
Vancouver iTech Preparatory on having their National History Day 
project showcased by the Smithsonian National Museum of American 
History at the Smithsonian Learning Lab.
  Their project, titled ``No Need for Translation: The Apollo-Soyuz 
Mission'', focuses on the bilateral cooperation between the United 
States and the Soviet Union in ending the Space Race through the 
construction of the first space station. The team placed particular 
emphasis on the unprecedented collaboration between Americans and 
Soviets at the height of the Cold War.
  For over 40 years, National History Day has been a stellar 
opportunity for students across the country to engage in and expand 
their knowledge of American history through research-based projects. I 
hope that participating in National History Day has allowed these 
students to deepen their appreciation for the great American history 
that unites us all.
  Once again, I want to congratulate Jonah, Clark, and Grant on a job 
well done.
