2023 U.S. House of Representatives Ornament

Introducing the 2023 U.S. House of Representatives Ornament, a magnificent tribute to the heart of American democracy and the holiday spirit. Crafted with a luxurious 24-carat gold finish, this ornament captures the breathtaking beauty of the West Front of the United States Capitol Building, gracefully draped in a blanket of pristine snow. Adorning this iconic scene is the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree, a symbol of unity and tradition, carefully selected to come from the Monongahela National Forest in West Virginia—a forest that holds a special place in the heart of young Ethan Reese, the winner of the 2023 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree essay contest, as announced by Senator Manchin.

"I'm thrilled to announce Ethan Reese from Beverly Elementary School has won the 2023 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree essay contest out of more than 400 outstanding submissions," said Senator Manchin. Ethan Reese, a fourth-grader from Beverly Elementary School, embodies the spirit of our great nation and its magnificent landscapes. He cherishes the Monongahela National Forest, where he spends cherished moments with his family, creating lifelong memories through outdoor adventures. With boundless enthusiasm, he will have the honor of officially lighting the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree this holiday season, representing not only the remarkable forestry but also the enduring community spirit of West Virginia.

This ornament is more than a piece of decoration; it's a testament to the values of family, community, and the enduring traditions that make America exceptional.
