                       Wednesday, April 10, 2024

  Mr. NUNN of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, as Co-Chairs of the Congressional App 
Challenge, Congressman Ted Lieu and I would like to include in the 
Record the winning students and their apps from the 2023 Congressional 
App Challenge.
  The 2023 Congressional App Challenge saw 11,334 students from all 50 
states and territories submit applications this year. Collectively, 
these students created 3,645 fully functioning apps. The Congressional 
App Challenge in its nine years has seen over 58,262 students create 
16,589 applications. With 374 Members of Congress, nearly 84 percent of 
the House of Representatives hosting an App Challenge in their 
district, this year marks tremendous success and growth of the program. 
We look forward to continue to celebrate the success of these students 
here in Washington, D.C. at #HouseOfCode on April 10th and 11th.
  The 2024 Congressional App Challenge launches on May 1, 2024, and 
concludes on October 24, 2024. The 2024 Congressional App Challenge 
marks the 10th consecutive App Challenge since its start in 2015. As 
Co-Chair of the Congressional App Challenge, I am excited to continue 
to support the program and its students at this milestone moment. 
Please join us in celebrating the program, and all our student alumni 
on September 17th for National App Challenge Day.
