Congresswoman Debbie Lesko (AZ-08) presented Surprise, Arizona resident Debbie Lee, Founder of America’s Mighty Warriors and Gold Star Mother, with Arizona’s District 8 Congressional Recognition. In 2006, Ms. Lee was notified that her son Marc Alan Lee, a Navy Seal, had been killed in action in Iraq. She founded America’s Mighty Warriors to provide programs that improve quality of life, resiliency and recovery for fallen heroes and their families.

“Debbie Lee received the devastating news that no mother ever wants to hear,” said Congresswoman Debbie Lesko (AZ-08). “But ever since, she has dedicated her life to assisting military families, honoring the fallen, and continuing the fight for freedom. Thank you, Debbie, for working tirelessly to help our troops and Gold Star families.”
