                            HON. IKE SKELTON

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 4, 2006

  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, let me take this means to congratulate 15-
year-old Rebekah Nastav of Amoret, Missouri. Miss Nastav's design for a 
new stamp won the Federal Junior Duck Stamp Design Contest on April 20, 
2006.
  Miss Nastav's acrylic painting of a redhead duck, entitled ``Morning 
Swim,'' will be featured on the 2006-2007 Junior Duck Stamp. More than 
34,000 Junior Duck Stamp designs were submitted from all 50 states. 
Miss Nastav's stamp will be made available by the Fish and Wildlife 
Service for $5.00 to the general public on June 1, 2006. Proceeds from 
the Junior Duck Stamp sales will be used to support environmental 
education efforts.
  Mr. Speaker, I am certain that the Members of the House will join me 
in congratulating Miss Rebekah Nastav and in wishing her luck in all 
her future endeavors.
