  Mrs. CAMMACK. Madam Speaker, I am proud to recognize Mr. Joey Mantia 
on the remarkable achievement of winning a Bronze Medal for 
speedskating in the Men's Team Pursuit at the 2022 Winter Olympics. I 
commend Mr. Mantia and his teammates for the commitment, hard work, and 
effort dedicated to this hard-fought victory, what an honor it is to be 
able to represent the United States of America at such a level. As a 
28-time world champion and world recordholder, he knows the hard work 
and dedication it takes. May he continue to make Florida and our 
country proud with his persistence.
  I am proud to recognize Ms. Erin Jackson on winning the Gold Medal in 
the Women's 500m Short Track Speed Skate at the 2022 Winter Olympics. 
This victory is well deserved, as I know it reflects the hard work and 
dedication Ms. Jackson has put in throughout her life. Not only does 
Ms. Jackson hold the title as a gold medalist, but as the first black 
woman to medal in speedskating at the Winter Olympics and the first 
American to win this event since 1994. May she continue to make Florida 
and our country proud with her persistence.
  I am proud to recognize Ms. Brittany Bowe on winning the Bronze Medal 
in the Women's 1000m Long Track Speed Skate at the 2022 Winter Olympic 
Games. I commend Ms. Bowe for the commitment, hard work, and effort she 
put into this hard-fought victory. As the winner of gold and silver 
medals at the World Single Distance Championship, she knows the hard 
work and dedication is what it takes to get to where you are today. May 
she continue to make Florida and our country proud with her 
persistence.
  I am proud to recognize the 100th anniversary of the Gainesville 
chapter of the National Society Daughters of the American Revolution. 
The Gainesville chapter was founded on April 2, 1922 to promote 
historic preservation, education, and patriotism. I am happy to 
recognize all the good that the Gainesville chapter does in their 
community. Members volunteer in their local communities including 
supporting active-duty military personnel and assisting veteran 
patients, awarding scholarships and financial aid each year to 
students, and supporting schools for underserved children. Here's to 
the next 100 years.
