RECOGNIZING CHANDA RUBIN, PROFESSIONAL TENNIS PLAYER
(Mr. FIELDS of Louisiana asked and was given permission to address
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. FIELDS of Louisiana. Mr. Speaker, today I take special pride in
recognizing a very outstanding constituent of mine. She is a 19-year-
old professional tennis player from Lafayette, LA. I speak of no other
than Chanda Rubin, daughter of Judge and Mrs. Edward D. Rubin.
I am proud to say that Chanda Rubin just completed her best ever
grand slam performance at the French Open. Although Chanda fell short
to the defending champion in the quarterfinals yesterday, she proved to
be a tough fighter. Her courage has touched the lives of many
individuals, particularly young people, across this Nation. I commend
Chanda for her hard work and I wish her the best of luck in the future.
