I rise today to honor Miguel Alvarado of Guadalupe, Arizona, a man deeply respected in our community. For over two decades, Miguel has shown up for his neighbors with consistency and with heart. For 25 years, he has led the Guadalupe Car Show, a tradition that brings thousands together to celebrate culture, creativity, and community pride. The 25th Anniversary Guadalupe Car Show returns on Sunday, April 26, transforming downtown Guadalupe into a vibrant festival with lowriders, classic cars, and custom builds, drawing 10,000 to 15,000 attendees from across Arizona. It is a must-attend event for families and car enthusiasts alike. Beyond the car show, Miguel has organized events for over 15 years that support local families, including a back-to-school drive and a Christmas celebration, bringing joy and gifts to children. For more than a decade, he has also provided turkeys to families in need during the holidays. Mr. Speaker, Miguel's work brings people together, building a network of volunteers committed to giving back. He reminds us that strong communities are built by those who show up. I am proud to represent him in Congress.
