     HONORING REKHA CHANDRA SEKARAN'S SERVICE TO TENNESSEE'S SIXTH

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. BART GORDON

                              of tennessee

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, January 29, 2008

  Mr. GORDON of Tennessee. Madam Speaker, today I rise to honor Rekha 
Chandrasekaran for her service to Tennessee's Sixth Congressional 
District while working in my Washington, DC, office.
  Rekha hails from Monterey, California--just 2,339 miles away from 
Monterey, Tennessee, which I have the honor of representing in this 
esteemed body. Despite the difference in geography, Rekha has been a 
great help to me and my staff and has helped me to better represent 
Middle Tennesseans.
  During her four years in the office, she has proven herself to be a 
strong writer and a talented systems administrator as she worked to 
launch a new Web site for the office. She has also taken on the task of 
coordinating a crew of interns each year and shepherding them 
throughout the Halls of Congress and around the nation's capital.
  February 1 is Rekha's last day in the office, as she is leaving to 
pursue other opportunities on Capitol Hill. My staff and I thank Rekha 
for her help, and we wish her all the best in her future endeavors.

                          ____________________
