                         Thursday, June 8, 2017

  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Daniel Clason of 
Pearland, TX, for being awarded a Fellowship by the James Madison 
Memorial Fellowship Foundation of Alexandria, VA.
  A social studies teacher at KIPP Spirit College Prep, Daniel is one 
of 53 people nationwide to receive this fellowship. The James Madison 
Fellowship recognizes promising and distinguished teachers, while 
supporting further study of American history and government by those 
who want to teach related courses in secondary schools. The fellowship 
will fund up to $24,000 of Daniel's master's degree, which is focused 
on the history and principles of the U.S. Constitution. This will allow 
Daniel to pursue a more in depth education, which he can pass on to his 
students.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Daniel for being awarded the James Madison 
Fellowship. Our students will greatly benefit from his hard work and 
will grow up to be defenders of the U.S. Constitution.
