                      Wednesday, February 25, 2009

  Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Madam Speaker, I rise today to offer my hearty 
congratulations to Ron Hull on his reception of the Pioneer Award from 
the NEBRASKAIand Foundation for his efforts to portray the spirit of 
Nebraska's heritage through his good works.
  Each year, the NEBRASKAIand Foundation celebrates Nebraska's entrance 
into the union. During this event, the Foundation honors distinguished 
Nebraskans for the impressive contributions to the State of Nebraska.
  Nothing sums up the spirit and values of Nebraska more than a 
person's willingness to reach out to friends, neighbors, and even 
strangers to help make our world a better place. Ron's dedication to 
tourism, historical leadership, and his career in public broadcasting 
is an inspiration.
  I thank Ron for his dedication and his service.
