                    in the house of representatives

                         Wednesday, May 1, 2024

  Mr. LATTA. Mr. Speaker, it is my great pleasure to pay special 
tribute to an outstanding student from Ohio's Fifth Congressional 
District. I am pleased to announce that Elizabeth Iliff of Lorain, 
Ohio, has been offered an appointment to the United States Military 
Academy in West Point, New York.
  Elizabeth's offer of appointment permits her to attend the United 
States Military Academy this fall with the incoming Class of 2028. 
Attending one of our Nation's military academies not only offers the 
opportunity to serve our country, but also guarantees a world-class 
education while undertaking one of the most challenging and rewarding 
experiences of their lives.
  Elizabeth brings a tremendous amount of leadership, service, and 
dedication to the incoming Class of 2028. While attending Marion Steele 
High School, she participated in National Honor Society, L.E.O. Club, 
student government, and was on the honor role. Throughout high school, 
Elizabeth was involved in cheerleading and golf, earning her varsity 
letter in both. I am confident that she will carry the lessons of her 
student and athletic leadership to the Military Academy.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in congratulating 
Elizabeth Iliff on her offer of appointment to the United States 
Military Academy. Our service academies offer the finest military 
training and education available, and I am positive that Elizabeth will 
excel during her career at the Military Academy. I ask my colleagues to 
join me in extending their best wishes to her as she begins her service 
to our Nation.
