                        Tuesday, March 24, 2026

  Mr. BILIRAKIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
extraordinary contributions of a dedicated community leader in my 
district, Ms. Missy Coyle. Missy has devoted the past 14 years to 
coalition and volunteer work, using her time, talent, and expertise to 
strengthen the Pasco County community.
  As the current Coordinator for the Alliance for Substance Addiction 
Prevention, Missy oversees the largest prevention organization in the 
county. She coordinates community events, leads initiatives to support 
those in need, and consistently shows up day in and day out at the All 
Ways Center to provide assistance, guidance, and compassion to 
individuals facing challenges.
  Missy's dedication extends to times of crisis. During the 2024 
hurricane season, she played a critical role in transforming the All 
Ways Center into a hurricane respite center, helping hundreds of 
residents access essential resources and support when they needed it 
most. A veteran and a nurse, Missy brings her skills, discipline, and 
empathy to every aspect of her service, ensuring that her community 
receives care, stability, and hope. Her tireless commitment, 
leadership, and selflessness make a profound difference in the lives of 
those she serves. Missy Coyle exemplifies the spirit of ``Heroes Among 
Us,'' giving of herself to improve her community and uplift those in 
need.
  Mr. Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Ms. Missy 
Coyle for her outstanding dedication and service. For her compassion, 
leadership, and unwavering commitment to the people of Pasco County, I 
am proud to honor Missy Coyle as a 2026 Heroes Among Us recipient for 
Florida's 12th Congressional District.
