  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Neyra Valdez for receiving the Adams County Mayors and Commissioners 
Youth Award.

this award because her determination and hard work have allowed her to 
overcome adversities.
  The dedication demonstrated by Neyra Valdez is exemplary of the type 
of achievement that can be attained with hard work and perseverance. It 
is essential students at all levels strive to make the most of their 
education and develop a work ethic which will guide them for the rest 
of their lives.
