                THE INSPIRING STORY OF ANTRONE WILLIAMS

  (Ms. KAPTUR asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. KAPTUR. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to share the inspiring story of 
Antrone ``Juice'' Williams, a remarkable individual from Lucas County, 
Ohio.
  I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Williams 2 years ago, and since 
then, his journey has been nothing short of extraordinary.
  Antrone is not just a dedicated athlete with the Special Olympics 
Lucas County Lightning, but also a relentless advocate for his 
community.
  As the former president of the Central Resident Advisory Board, he 
tirelessly represented over 11,000 residents in Lucas Metropolitan 
Housing.

  His entrepreneurial spirit led him to Ivy Entrepreneurs business 
school where he rose to new heights, becoming the CEO and founder of 
the H.O.W. Inc. Foundation, Helping Others Win.
  Antrone's achievements are vast, but perhaps most notable is his 
pioneering accomplishment as the first physically challenged man to 
become an independent provider.
  Antrone's story is a beacon of hope for those living with physical 
challenges. His story is a powerful reminder that our circumstances do 
not define us, our spirit and determination do. To Antrone I say: 
Onward. We are so proud of you.
