Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 144 (Monday, September 14, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 144 (Monday, September 14, 2026)] [Extensions of Remarks] [Page E909] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] HONORING TEXAS-24 HOMETOWN HERO ANEESH MAXUMDER ______ HON. BETH VAN DUYNE of texas in the house of representatives Monday, September 14, 2026 Ms. VAN DUYNE. Mr. Speaker, I rise to recognize our Texas-24 Hometown Hero, Aneesh Maxumder. He is a Euless native and current student at Harvard University, where he continues to build on his strong commitment to public service. His interest in public service began at a young age, when his family regularly volunteered in our community, including at food drives for Grapevine Relief & Community Exchange. He continued his dedication to serving North Texas by participating in our Congressional Youth Advisory Program, where students across Texas-24 learn about public service and strengthen their leadership skills. After witnessing friends struggle to access the resources needed to pursue medical careers, Aneesh launched HealthPath Horizons to connect students with the tools they need to enter the healthcare field. Through this nonprofit, he provides presentations, workshops, and open- access materials to underrepresented students. To date, HealthPath Horizons has directly empowered more than 300 underserved students to pursue the medical careers they aspire to. Aneesh's leadership and desire to help others makes him a shining example of the remarkable students from North Texas. We look forward to watching him empower others to explore their own dream careers. ____________________
