                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, December 18, 2017

  Ms. CHENEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to extend my congratulations to 
Taelor Nielsen and Zavier McClain on being selected to receive the 
Congress-Bundestag Youth Exchange Program's (CBYX) merit based 
scholarship.
   As part of this selective program, they will be traveling to Germany 
for a year to immerse themselves in the culture, develop their foreign 
language skills, and strengthen their leadership and academic 
interests. Many alumni of this program have gone on to serve our great 
nation in both national security and civilian roles.
   Taelor and Zavier's selection to the CBYX program and scholarship is 
a sign of their hard work, leadership, and academic curiosity. I 
commend their fortitude and dedication to academics and the future of 
our great nation.
   Again, Mr. Speaker, I would like to extend my congratulations to the 
2017 Wyoming recipients of the CBYX scholarship. Taelor and Zavier 
deserve to be extremely proud of this accomplishment.

                          ____________________
