On 2025-03-11, Representative Susie Lee (D-NV-3) delivered a floor speech titled "ISAIAH MISAILEGALU'S VOICE IS SAMOAN SILK" in the House.
ISAIAH MISAILEGALU'S VOICE IS SAMOAN SILK Congressional Record, Volume 171 Issue 45 (Tuesday, March 11, 2025) [Congressional Record Volume 171, Number 45 (Tuesday, March 11, 2025)] [House] [Page H1076] From the Congressional Record Online through the Government Publishing Office [ www.gpo.gov ] ISAIAH MISAILEGALU'S VOICE IS SAMOAN SILK (Ms. Lee of Nevada was recognized to address the House for 5 minutes.) Ms. LEE of Nevada. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate who I believe will be the next winner of ``American Idol,'' Sierra Vista High School's own and Nevada Third District constituent Isaiah Misailegalu. Over the weekend, I watched Isaiah get his golden ticket to Hollywood after singing ``A Song for You,'' with his uncle playing the guitar by his side. With a voice like his, it is no wonder they are calling him Samoan Silk. Not only is Isaiah a powerful and talented singer, but he also shines on the football field and volleyball court and in leading his school's Polynesian Club. No matter what Isaiah does, I hope he knows that the entire southern Nevada community is behind him chasing his dreams. I wish him the best of luck on his ``American Idol'' journey. ____________________
