CONGRATULATING QAADIA ROBERTS

Congressional Record, Volume 172 Issue 86 (Wednesday, May 20, 2026) [Congressional Record Volume 172, Number 86 (Wednesday, May 20, 2026)] [House] [Page H3666] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] CONGRATULATING QAADIA ROBERTS (Mrs. McIVER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.) Mrs. McIVER. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate Qaadia Roberts, the New Jersey Tenth's native and founder of She Is, Inc. She Is is a Jersey City-based nonprofit that empowers girls through mentorship, leadership, development, and community engagement that directly strengthens access to opportunity and workforce readiness. Qaadia Roberts founded She Is because of the importance of instilling confidence and providing opportunities to build connections for young women. Roberts was honored at the 2026 Black History Month Celebration with the Hudson County Positive Impact award, recognizing the decade of dedication she put in to local and State government with her nonprofit work. Mr. Speaker, on behalf of New Jersey's 10th Congressional District, I am wishing Qaadia Roberts and She Is the best as she continues to provide vital mentoring to young women and girls. ____________________
