RECOGNIZING PRIDE MONTH AND RADIANT HEALTH CENTERS

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 98 (Wednesday, June 10, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 98 (Wednesday, June 10, 2026)] [House] [Page H4065] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] 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. ____________________
