  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Andre Ferreira 
from Katy, TX for being accepted into the National Academy of Future 
Physicians and Medical Scientists to represent the state of Texas at 
the Congress of Future Medical Leaders.
  Andre attends Cinco Ranch High School and is one of eight high school 
honor students selected from the Twenty-Second Congressional District 
of Texas. These students were selected as Texas delegates at the 
Congress of Future Medical Leaders, a program for high school students 
to be recognized for their hard work in school and supported to 
continually strive toward their aspirations of working in the medical 
field. The National Academy was founded by Richard Rossi and Dr. Robert 
Darling; Mr. Rossi currently serves as president. The Congress is being 
held at the Tsongas Center at the University of Massachusetts, Lowell 
from June 25th through the 27th. Andre was selected by a group of 
educators to be a delegate for the Congress because of his dedication 
to his academic success and goals of pursuing a medical science. We are 
proud of Andre and all of his hard work, and know he will make Katy 
proud.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Andre for being accepted into the National 
Academy of Future Physicians and Medical Scientists. Keep up the great 
work.
