           RECOGNIZING PRIDE MONTH AND RADIANT HEALTH CENTERS

  (Mr. MIN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. MIN. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Pride Month 
and to honor Radiant Health Centers, an Irvine-based nonprofit that has 
been serving Orange County's LGBTQ+ communities, underserved residents, 
and people living with or affected by HIV for nearly four decades.
  Founded in 1985 as AIDS Services Foundation Orange County, Radiant 
began as a volunteer-led response to the HIV/AIDS crisis, providing 
dignity and support at a time when too many people were being denied 
the care they deserved.
  Today, Radiant is the largest and most comprehensive nonprofit HIV 
service provider in Orange County, touching thousands of lives.
  Radiant began as an act of courage. The founding volunteers stood up 
for the most vulnerable amid devastating stigmatization, which saved 
lives.
  This Pride Month, I hope their courage will inspire us all. Amid 
rising hate and discrimination, let us recommit ourselves to defending 
dignity and equality for all. I am proud to recognize Radiant Health 
Centers for their lifesaving work and their deep commitment to the 
people of Orange County.
