  Mr. JORDAN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to share positive news about 
young people from Ohio's 4th Congressional District. Today, I am 
pleased to commend to the House twelve high school students who are 
being honored for their outstanding leadership skills and volunteerism.
  On February 11, 2026, the Noon Optimist Club of Lima will recognize 
Andrew Baldauf, Vivian Elrod, Sheldyn Fetter, Daniela Garcia, Jackson 
Niesen, Emersyn Painter, Eli Pohlman, Russell Powell, Aniya Prowant, 
Michael Sherrick, Alexandria Weber, and Laila Woods at its annual youth 
appreciation luncheon. These students were each nominated by their 
schools for being good role models for their peers.
  I thank the Optimists for their efforts to celebrate the many 
achievements of these students and am proud to join in the accolades to 
them. They have my very best wishes for continued success in their 
lives in the years to come.
