  Mr. LATHAM. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize my constituent 
Morgan Smith, of Nevada, Iowa, and congratulate her on her 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 her academic excellence, community involvement and 
leadership potential, this forum will provide Morgan with daily 
leadership oriented curriculum, as well as allow her 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 Morgan Smith for her commitment to academic 
and personal development. She is a future leader of this country of 
whom Iowa is very proud. I am honored to represent Morgan and her 
family in the United States Congress and I wish her the best in her 
future endeavors.
