           RECOGNIZING NATIONAL WOMEN AND GIRLS IN SPORTS DAY

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize 
National Women and Girls in Sports Day.
  Sports have the power to break barriers, inspire change, and create 
opportunities. For generations, women and girls have fought for their 
place on the field, the court, and the track. Thanks to their 
resilience, we now see more female athletes excelling, competing, and 
leading in sports than ever before.
  I am appreciative of the work President Trump has done to empower 
girls and women across the Nation. Mr. Speaker, let's continue to 
uplift and empower women and girls in sports every day because when we 
invest in them, we invest in the future of strength, leadership, and 
limitless potential. Together, we create a world where every girl can 
play, compete, and lead.
