              TRIBUTE TO 2019 STATE FFA DEGREE RECIPIENTS

 Mr. DAINES. Mr. President, Future Farmers of America, FFA, is 
a noteworthy educational program that makes a difference in the lives 
of young Montanans by helping members navigate their future careers and 
enhancing their leadership skills and personal growth. FFA isn't only 
for those who want to end up in production agriculture, but for those 
who want to become teachers, businessowners, and leaders in their 
communities. I have had the privilege of meeting many FFA members over 
the last several years and have enjoyed hearing about their 
experiences. It is my pleasure to honor the 205 members receiving their 
State FFA Degree this year. The State Degree is the highest degree that 
can be given and requires members to complete several critical 
benchmarks, including 360 hours of agricultural education in high 
school, 10 procedures of parliamentary law, more than 25 hours of 
community service, and they must serve as a chapter officer or a 
committee chair. Receiving the State Degree underscores a member's 
dedication to learning to do, doing to learn, earning to live and 
living to serve.
  Congratulations to the 205 FFA Members receiving their State FFA 
Degree this year: Wilson Paytyn of Bainville, Bradly Kallevig of Baker,
