                       Tuesday, January 19, 2010

  Mr. STARK. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Dr. Steven 
D. Chan, a pediatric dentist who resides and practices in Fremont, 
California. Dr. Chan was recently elected as a Regent of the American 
College of Dentists, the oldest national honorary organizations for 
dentists in the country. During his service as Regent, Dr. Chan will 
represent Regency 7, which comprises California, Nevada, Arizona, New 
Mexico and Hawaii.
  The College recognizes meritorious contributions to the Dental 
Society and the profession of dentistry.
  Dr. Chan serves on the Executive Committee of the California Society 
of Pediatric Dentistry and is past president of the California Dental 
Association. He is founder of the California Dental Association 
Foundation. The Foundation was formed as the philanthropic affiliate of 
the California Dental Association in 2001 with the mission to improve 
the oral health of Californians.
  Dr. Chan formerly served on the Fremont Library Commission and is 
active in the Fremont community. I am confident Dr. Chan will serve 
admirably in his newly elected role as Regent. I wish him every 
success.
