RECOGNIZING MARTIN COUNTY WRIGHT FLIGHT FLY DAY Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 81 (Wednesday, May 13, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 81 (Wednesday, May 13, 2026)] [House] [Page H3446] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] RECOGNIZING MARTIN COUNTY WRIGHT FLIGHT FLY DAY (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.) Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, dreams are taking flight in Martin County, North Carolina. The Wright Flight Fly Day rewards sixth graders from across the county for academic success, leadership, and positive choices by giving them an opportunity to see their home community in an airplane from the skies above. Through a powerful partnership between the local schools, sheriff's office, and airport commission, students are connected to real-world opportunities in aviation, engineering, science, technology, and public service. We are working to keep the American Dream within reach. Wright Flight reminds young people across eastern North Carolina that their hopes and dreams are achievable and their future can soar even higher. ____________________
