                             HON. TOM EMMER

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 8, 2020

  Mr. EMMER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Valerie Doze, 
a student at the College of St. Benedict in St. Joseph on receiving the 
Truman Scholarship.
  The Truman Foundation was established by Congress in 1975 to honor 
President Harry S. Truman's legacy of extraordinary public service. The 
Truman Scholarship serves as a living monument to that legacy.
  Each year, a diverse group of scholars receive $30,000 to pursue 
graduate studies and are granted priority placement at our nation's top 
universities, as well as internships within the federal government.
  Valerie is one of 62 in the 2020 class of Truman Scholars, having 
distinguished herself in a pool of nearly 800 candidates nominated by 
316 colleges and universities across the country. Valerie will serve as 
the North Dakota Truman Scholar.
  Congratulations to Valerie on this incredible honor, and we look 
forward to seeing all that she accomplishes.

                          ____________________
