                       Tribute to Jane Lee Hamman

  Mr. DAINES. Madam President, today I have the distinct honor of 
recognizing Jane Lee Hamman of Jefferson County as Montanan of the 
Month, for her patriotism, her dedication to serving her community, our 
great State, and our great Nation.
  Jane's selfless contributions began at a young age when she started 
volunteering for Meals on Wheels with her parents. Jane also joined her 
parents in supporting Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and the civil 
rights movement as well, believing in equal opportunity and advancement 
for all people based on their character, not the color of their skin. 
In fact, her life mantra is ``Living to advance freedom, knowledge, and 
justice for all.'' I think I can speak for all who know her when I say 
that she truly embraces these ideals.
  Jane's love for her country is on full display in the monthly column 
she writes for the Boulder Monitor newspaper. The goal of Jane's column 
is to preserve liberty, to educate readers about America's vision of 
the Declaration of Independence, and to celebrate our Constitution.
  She also shares her values of patriotism and volunteerism with others 
while serving as the lay leader of the Clancy United Methodist Church 
and as the Oro Fino Chapter Registrar of the Daughters of the American 
Revolution.
  Additionally, Jane has been appointed by Gov. Greg Gianforte to the 
Montana State Board of Education and is the chair for the North 
Jefferson County Public Library District Board of Trustees.
  I have no doubt that her love for the great State of Montana and the 
United States of America influences every person she meets.
  It is truly my honor to recognize Jane for her commitment to serving 
her community, her State, and her country while spreading Montana's 
values of service and patriotism.
  Jane, keep up the great work.
  I yield the floor.
  The PRESIDING OFFICER (Mr. Whitehouse). The Senator from Louisiana.
