  Mr. VAN DREW. Madam Speaker, in December of 2019, Anthony Jimenez 
earned the rank of Eagle Scout. He attends Rowan University in the 
music education program and just completed his first year. Anthony 
participated in the marching band and was awarded the rookie of the 
year award and has earned a leadership award every year after that. For 
Anthony's Eagle Scout project, he started a music program at Daniel's 
Den Community Center in Vineland, South Jersey. He donated and 
collected over 20 musical instruments needed for the project and put in 
130 hours of work dedicated to the launching of the music program. Over 
the course of Anthony's time as a scout, he earned 26 merit badges, and 
held positions as troop bugler, patrol leader, assistant senior patrol 
leader, and senior patrol leader. In addition to all his successes, he 
is currently teaching eight merit badges to younger boy scouts online. 
Anthony is an inspiration to his peers and is looked up to by his 
fellow scouts and I know he will go on to achieve great things. God 
Bless Anthony and God Bless America.
