  Mr. SERRANO. Madam Speaker, it is my pleasure to honor Mr. Daniel 
``Danny'' M. Barber for his many years of tireless advocacy to improve 
the lives of Bronx residents. He is a great example of everyday 
contributions that African-Americans have made in my district in the 
Bronx and the Nation.
  Mr. Barber was born in 1969 to the late Dan Walker and Janie Barber-
Walker and is the youngest of five children. He attended the De Witt 
Clinton High School and was a member of the football team. He began his 
love for community work when he joined the ranks of the Salvation Army 
during his early years and went on to excel as Director and afterward 
became Assistant to the Commanding Officer.
  Mr. Barber currently serves as the President of the Andrew Jackson 
Houses Resident Association, Inc., and is the Founder of SOY, Inc. 
(Save Our Youth). Recently, he was elected to serve as the Chair of the 
City-Wide Council of Presidents, which oversees all of the NYCHA 
Resident's Associations, and also serves as the Chair of The South 
Bronx Council of Presidents. While serving in these capacities, he also 
serves on several other agencies and organizations boards giving 
technical support and principled guidance.
  Madam Speaker, I ask my colleagues to join me in honoring Mr. Daniel 
M. Barber for his steadfast dedication and years of public service to 
our NYCHA residents, and for his longstanding commitment to improving 
our community.
