                    in the house of representatives

                       Friday, February 25, 2022

  Mr. VEASEY. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 
accomplishments of Ms. Channing Hill of Texas' 33rd District. Channing 
is an aspiring lawyer pursuing a Bachelor of Arts degree in Strategic, 
Legal, and Management Communication at Howard University. She also has 
used almost all her life advocating for social justice and equality for 
all.
  At only 20 years old, Channing has organized and led protests in 
public schools in her home state of Texas since her adolescence. 
Channing first found her voice in her NAACP Youth Council in Arlington, 
Texas. She now leads as the Howard University NAACP Chapter President 
and the Region 7 National Youth-Works Committee Representative. This 
past fall, Channing continued her fight for social justice when she was 
one of eight student leaders to participate in the #Blackburn Takeover.
  Now this month, her work is being honored at the highest level. On 
February 26th, she proudly received the NAACP Award for Youth Activist 
of the Year. This award recognizes NAACP members for their work to 
improve their community, educate the masses, identify the problems, and 
lead the revolution to fix them.
  We are so proud of Channing for her work and for this accomplishment. 
We know her continued commitment to social justice and equity will make 
our community a better place for all.
