in the house of representatives
Tuesday, July 21, 2026
Ms. WILSON of Florida. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and commend Ms. Venghan “Winnie” Tang, a dedicated community advocate with a powerful voice who has made significant contributions to South Florida and our country, and I include in the Record the following proclamation in her honor:
Whereas, Ms. Tang is a deeply committed activist who has
devoted her professional career to promoting the interests
and well-being of the Asian Pacific American community;
Whereas, Ms. Tang has enriched the lives of countless South
Floridians by administering after-school tutoring programs,
encouraging voter registration and census participation, and
advocating for immigration reform, legal and civil rights,
homeless reform, healthcare, and women's affairs;
Whereas, Ms. Tang was the first Asian American to serve on
the Miami-Dade County Democratic Executive Committee, and has
organized voter registration drives and “Get Out the Vote”
campaigns in the Asian community;
Whereas, Ms. Tang's excellence in leadership, advocacy,
non-profit work, and community service has been recognized by
various organizations through awards, accomplishments, and
appointments, including chairing the Asian-American Steering
Committee, leading to the creation of the Asian-American
Advisory Board in Miami-Dade County, being the first Chinese
American woman to receive the Miami-Dade County Park &
Recreation Department's in the Company of Women Award in
2002, receiving the Florida Minority Reinvestment Community
Coalition's Minority Advocacy Award in 2006, and receiving
the Inaugural Honors Award Saluting South Florida's 21st
Century Educators by Miami Gardens Excellence in Education
Council (MGEEC) in 2013; and
Now, therefore, be it resolved that I, Frederica S. Wilson,
a member of the United States House of Representatives,
representing the 24th Congressional District of Florida,
commend Ms. Venghan “Winnie” Tang for her years of
commitment and faithful service to our community.
