                 RECOGNIZING WE LOVE SPORTS FOUNDATION

  (Mr. LATIMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. LATIMER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to share the work being done 
by Premiere Athletes and the WE Love Sports Foundation led New Rochelle 
native, Lawrence Posey.
  Lawrence is a former athlete and passionate community leader who 
understands the impact when you gather communities around the love of 
sports.
  I have fond memories from my childhood of playing baseball and 
football with the other kids on the block after the streetlights came 
on and before my parents called me in the house. These moments taught 
me valuable lessons of teamwork, time management, and responsibility.
  Today, these kids play games on the same streets and on the fields as 
I once did, learning the same valuable lessons.

  I commend Lawrence and WE Love Sports and Premiere Athletes for 
making it possible for every child to have the opportunity to succeed 
and have fun as kids should on and off the field.
