                       Thursday, February 1, 2024

  Mrs. SYKES. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Amanda Archer from 
Canton as the Ohio-13 Champion of the Week. Amanda is the first woman 
to lead Canton City Public Health as Health Commissioner in its 175-
year history. In addition to working for the health department since 
2014, she also worked as an epidemiologist in the Stark County 
Coroner's Office as an epidemiologist to inform decisions and policies 
to help prevent disease in the community.
  This experience made her an easy fit as the lead epidemiologist for 
Canton's COVID-19 response in 2020, helping Canton residents understand 
critical information about the virus. Amanda has dedicated herself to 
the health and wellbeing of her community, and I am excited to see how 
she leads Canton City Public Health in her new role.

  Congratulations once more to the Ohio-13 Champion of the Week, Amanda 
Archer.
