       HONORING LANE JOHNSON ON THE COMPLETION OF HER INTERNSHIP

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. BART GORDON

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, June 29, 2006

  Mr. GORDON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the many 
contributions Lane Johnson has made while interning in my Washington, 
DC, office. A resident of Gallatin, Tennessee, Lane has been a 
wonderful addition to the office and a great servant to the 
constituents of Tennessee's Sixth Congressional District.
  This fall, Lane will begin her final semester at the University of 
Tennessee, where she is majoring in agricultural economics and 
business. She is a member of Chi Omega, and I understand she is a 
member of the school's equestrian team. I hope those horses in 
Knoxville treat her better than the ones in Virginia did.
  During her internship, Lane won over the entire staff with her ever-
present eagerness and genuine interest in public affairs. She has 
attended briefings, addressed constituent concerns and served as a 
friendly and informative tour guide of the U.S. Capitol, providing 
visitors from Middle Tennessee with a personalized look at a national 
treasure.
  I hope Lane has enjoyed her internship as much as my staff and I have 
enjoyed her presence in the office. I wish her all the best in the 
future.
