Mrs. LEE of Nevada. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate West Career and Technical Academy's We the People team. They are not only studying history; they are making it.

Mr. Speaker, 1999 was the last time a southern Nevada We the People team qualified for nationals. But now, 14 students from West Tech's We the People team have changed that.

As part of We the People, these students are going that extra mile in their civic education to study our history, our Constitution, and our democracy.

To Mrs. Rozar and all the outstanding We the People teachers, we say thank you.

I have no doubt of West Tech's success later this month when they compete here in Washington, but I am even more excited to watch where this passion takes them as leaders in Nevada's future.

Congratulations to West Tech's We the People team, and good luck in D.C.
