  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize my constituent 
Ryan Guerra, of Perry, Iowa, and congratulate him on his acceptance to 
the People to People World Leadership Forum held in Washington, D.C. 
from the 21st through the 26th of June 2010.
  Chosen for his academic excellence, community involvement and 
leadership potential, this forum will provide Ryan with daily 
leadership oriented curriculum, as well as allow him to visit the 
historic sights of Washington, D.C. and its surrounding areas.
  The People to People Ambassador Programs, founded by President 
Eisenhower in 1956 to promote cross cultural and political 
understanding, currently operates on all seven continents, has over 
400,000 alumni and provides students with the opportunity to learn and 
establish the necessary tools to become an effective leader.
  Madam Speaker, I commend Ryan Guerra for his commitment to academic 
and personal development. He is a future leader of this country of whom 
Iowa is very proud. I am honored to represent Ryan and his family in 
the United States Congress and I wish him the best in his future 
endeavors.
