Rep. Martha McSally

U.S. Rep. Martha McSally recognized two young Southern Arizona women on the U.S. House floor last week.

She recognized Macy Maine of Buena High School in Sierra Vista and Hannah Mason from Pusch Ridge Christian Academy. Those two women were out of four students who received the 2016 Brilliant, Beautiful and Bold Role Model Award from the Girls Rule Foundation.

The award recognizes young women leaders who are making a difference.

Maine was given the award for engaging in the community. She is an All-American Cheerleader and a frequent volunteer in her community, McSally said. Mason is a selfless leader who cared for her family after her father passed in a car accident.
