          CONGRATULATING CONGRESSIONAL APP CHALLENGE STUDENTS

  (Mrs. KIM of California asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute.)
  Mrs. KIM of California. Mr. Speaker,
  I rise to recognize the participants and winners of the 2021 
Congressional App Challenge. This is the largest App Challenge to date.
  The App Challenge gives students of all backgrounds and from 
communities across the Nation the opportunity to move from passive 
consumers of technology to active creators of technology.

  Coding and technological skills will only become more important in 
the economy of the future. These students blew us away by creating apps 
that would make a difference, tackling real-world challenges and 
reflecting their commitment to making our world a better place.
  I thank and offer my congratulations to all the students that 
participated this year, and I wish every single one of them the best of 
luck in their future endeavors.
