  Mr. PORTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Sherman Frederick on 
his election to the Nevada Newspaper Hall of Fame. I am pleased to join 
with all Nevadans in honoring him for his contribution to journalism 
and our community.
  Sherman Frederick began his career in journalism as an intern at the 
Review-Journal, the paper he currently publishes. He also serves as 
President of the Stephens Media Group, allowing him to share his 
experience and expertise with newspapers around the country.

  All of us who have been sworn to uphold the Constitution recognize 
the vital role our newspapers play in protecting our freedoms by 
remaining vigilant against any violations of our First Amendment. I 
urge all Nevadans and all members of this House to join with me in 
congratulating Sherman on winning this high honor.
