                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. FREDERICA S. WILSON

                               of florida

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 20, 2022

  Ms. WILSON of Florida. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor Ed Haynes 
for his stellar and philanthropic contributions to the 5000 Role Models 
of Excellence Project.
  Frederick Douglass once said, ``it is easier to build strong children 
than to repair broken men.'' I thank Ed Haynes so much for believing in 
our mission of interrupting the school to prison pipeline and to 
guiding our young boys along a cheerfully charted path and sending them 
to college. He is investing in the children of our community, and they 
will be the benefactors of his investment for generations to come. He 
will always be a part of us, and we will always be a part of him. I 
thank him for all that he does on behalf of our children.
  Madam Speaker, please join me in honoring Ed Haynes, a 2023 Role 
Model Wall Man with a generous philanthropic spirit, and I ask my 
colleagues from the 117th Congress to join me in honoring this special 
circle of brotherhood.

                          ____________________
