   CELEBRATING THE 25TH ANNIVERSARY OF PRIME TIMERS OF THE NATIONAL 
                              CAPITAL AREA

                                  _____
                                 

                       HON. ELEANOR HOLMES NORTON

                      of the district of columbia

                    in the house of representatives

                         Tuesday, June 7, 2022

  Ms. NORTON. Madam Speaker, I rise today to ask the House of 
Representatives to join me in celebrating the 25th anniversary of Prime 
Timers of the National Capital Area.
  Prime Timers of the National Capital Area was founded on December 17, 
1996, as a chapter of Prime Timers Worldwide, an international non-
profit organization that celebrates all human diversity and whose 
vision is to ``Bring together mature gay and bisexual men for 
friendship, social activities, support and personal growth.''
  The mission of Prime Timers of the National Capital Area is to 
provide opportunities for older gay and bisexual men to come together 
in a safe and supportive environment regardless of race, nationality, 
sexual orientation, physical ability, ethnicity, religion or political 
affiliation. The chapter promotes healthy aging through supportive 
relationships and personal enrichment through service to others.
  Madam Speaker, again, I ask the House of Representatives to join me 
in honoring Prime Timers of the National Capital Area for its 25 years 
of dedicated service, which has advanced the welfare not only of the 
LGBTQ community in the District of Columbia, but of the entire 
population of the District of Columbia.
