“Mr. Speaker, I rise today to encourage young people in my district to learn more about the opportunities offered by our U.S. service academies. One of the greatest honors of being a Member of Congress is having the ability to nominate outstanding students for appointment to West Point, the Naval Academy, the Air Force Academy, and the Merchant Marine Academy. As high school students contemplate what they will do after graduation, I encourage them to consider the benefits of attending one of our service academies, including the unique opportunities for leadership and entry to a range of careers, at no cost to the student or their family. The process is competitive, so it is never too early to get started. I encourage any students in Pennsylvania's Fifth Congressional District who might be interested in attending a service academy to attend our next virtual information session hosted by my office on May 27 at 7 p.m. They may sign up at scanlon.house.gov. I look forward to nominating another amazing group of young leaders to the service academies this fall. ____________________”
