  Ms. ESHOO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Eugenia Chen, a 
dedicated young leader who is being honored as an inductee into the San 
Mateo County Women's Hall of Fame.
  Eugenia Chen is an exemplary student who has taken the most rigorous 
academic program at Mills High School, achieving first place in her 
class of 327 students and being honored as a National Merit semi-
finalist. She serves her school and her fellow students as student body 
president, is an accomplished musician playing both piano and flute, 
and was chosen most valuable player in tennis and badminton. Eugenia 
has been chosen National Youth Ambassador for the Organization for 
Chinese-Americans and will travel across the country, representing 
Chinese-American youth. She was elected Supreme Court Justice at last 
summer's Girls' State, and is serving as an intern with the San Mateo 
County Board of Supervisors. She is an extraordinary student and 
athlete, and gives generously of her time to her community.
  Eugenia Chen is an outstanding citizen and I salute her for her 
remarkable contributions and commitment to our community. I ask my 
colleagues to join me in honoring and congratulating her on being 
inducted into the San Mateo County Women's Hall of Fame.
