MIKE MIRON--FARMER OF TOMORROW
(Mr. EMMER of Minnesota asked and was given permission to address the
House for 1 minute.)
Mr. EMMER of Minnesota. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Mike
Miron of Hugo, who recently won the Young Farmers and Ranchers
Excellence in Agricultural national competition at the American Farm
Bureau Federation's annual meeting.
Mike is the fifth generation to work in his family's dairy and crop
farm. In addition, he is also a high school teacher and Future Farmers
of America adviser in Forest Lake, Minnesota.
Agriculture is one of the more important sectors of the American
economy. Thanks to farmers who are educators, like Mike Miron, my State
of Minnesota is a national leader in agriculture.
We need to celebrate the hardworking men and women who contribute to
agriculture in Minnesota and all across this Nation.
Thank you, Mike, for what you have done and what you continue to do
for agriculture today and tomorrow, and congratulations for your
Excellence in Agriculture.
