                       Thursday, October 25, 2007

  Mr. McGOVERN. Madam Speaker, I rise today in recognition of Jason 
Palitsch of Shrewbury, Mssachusetts. Jason's enthusiasm for the 
political process has led to his selection to receive the Eleanor 
Roosevelt Humanitarian Youth Award from the Shrewsbury Democratic Town 
Committee.
  Currently a freshman at Northeastern University, Jason has already 
become active in politics. He is the president of the ``Northeastern 
for Hillary'' group and will become Political Director of the College 
Democrats group in the spring.
  Jason's political activism began while he was a student at Shrewsbury 
High School. While there, he co-founded and was the first president of 
the Shrewsbury High School Young Democrats club. He was also a member 
and officer of numerous other student organizations during his 4 years 
at Shrewsbury High School, including Amnesty International, Political 
Action Group, Student Council, and the student newspaper.
  Jason is a passionate and likable young man who has a bright future 
in whatever profession he chooses to work in. I congratulate Jason on 
this award and his enthusiasm for politics.
