                            FFA NORTH MIAMI

  (Mrs. WALORSKI asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. WALORSKI. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the North Miami 
Future Farmers of America members for their dedication to aiding their 
fellow classmate, Evan Exmeyer.
  As a student at North Miami High School, Evan was born with cerebral 
palsy. He lives on a hog and grain farm and relies on a wheelchair 
accessible van to transport him around his family's land. 
Unfortunately, the van can't travel to every corner of the farm, making 
parts of his own land inaccessible.
  These outstanding FFA students, with the help of our generous Hoosier 
community, raised $20,000 in donations to purchase and modify a UTV 
Gator. Thanks to their hard work, Evan has the freedom to explore all 
that his farm has to offer.
  The commitment to bettering the lives of others demonstrated by the 
North Miami FFA members makes me so proud to represent Indiana's Second 
District. Their dedication to public service is something to be admired 
by Hoosiers everywhere.
  Today, I thank the North Miami FFA members for serving as role models 
for our entire Hoosier community statewide.
