                        Tuesday, April 19, 2016

  Mr. PERLMUTTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and applaud 
Korissa Straub for receiving the Arvada Chamber of Commerce's 2015 
Rising Star Award.
   Korissa exemplifies outstanding leadership and involvement in the 
Arvada community. With a 4.46 GPA, including in AP and Honors classes, 
and as a three-sport athlete, Korissa clearly excels in school and all 
she does. She is an accomplished art student, vice president of her 
DECA team, student ambassador, and is involved in seven other clubs at 
school as well as the Outdoor Leadership Program and the International 
Career Development Conference. Korissa also helped coordinate a 
children's book drive at her middle school and has since continued that 
annual effort.
   I extend my deepest congratulations to Korissa Straub for this well-
deserved recognition by the Arvada Chamber of Commerce.
