                        Thursday, August 2, 2007

  Mr. HENSARLING. Madam Speaker, today I would like to honor the 
Mesquite Independent School District's new teachers for the 2007-2008 
school year.
  An excellent education is fundamental to the growth and development 
of our Nation's youth. With over 35,000 children in the Mesquite 
community, it is imperative that we continue to acquire high-quality 
teachers.
  As a father of 2 young children, I understand and appreciate the 
impact teachers have on the lives of our children. We are gratefully 
indebted to them for enriching the lives of our students. Our teachers 
can make a difference in the lives of each and every child they teach.
  As the Congressional representative of Mesquite, Texas, it is my 
distinct pleasure to honor Mesquite's newest teachers in the United 
States House of Representatives.
