America is the worlds most generous and diverse country. and Basma is proof that this generosity touches those who need it most. I am proud that Basma and her family call Jacksonville. FL their home. Basma has fully utilized the great opportunities presented to her by the United States of America and has dedicated her life to fostering community in Jacksonville and around the world. Mr. Speaker. I ask you and Members of Congress to join me in recognizing Basma Alawee. not only for overcoming incredible challenges as a refugee. but for her dedication making this country a home for her family. her neighbors. and those who have dreams of escaping conflict for a better life.
