Congressman Randy Weber made a stop at the Nia Cultural Center in Galveston on Thursday. While touring the center he met Miss Juneteenth Texas 2023, Madison Swain of Texas City and presented her with a certificate for her outstanding accomplishments. He also donated a framed copy of the bill making Juneteenth a federal holiday. The bill will be hung for guests to view at the Nia Cultural Center.

She has written for The Tucson Citizen, The Arizona Daily Star, The Aztec Press, Tucson Lifestyles Magazine, Galveston County Daily News and Guidry News where she advanced her skills as a photojournalist.
Her writing and photography have been filling our front page for two years.
Her background also includes two published books, Coping with the Death of a Brother or Sister and Self Esteem, Team Mental Health. She also brings her broadcast journalism experiences from Southern Arizona to the Texas Gulf Coast.
Most of her work is generated through her own initiative. Ruth has a sense of what makes the county special. We love the way she has taken on the task of not only reporting, writing, and photography but also finding so much of the best of Galveston County!!!
