                       Tuesday, December 13, 2022

  Ms. WILSON of Florida. Madam Speaker, I rise to honor the service of 
Taylor Burtch, my fellow who has worked to improve our Nation's 
education system. Taylor has proven to be a talented and intelligent 
policy analyst, always ready to take on any task and apply her 
knowledge.
  Taylor assisted my education policy team, where she worked on 
legislation, partook in stakeholder meetings, and considered various 
ways to improve education and teacher assistance. She is a detailed and 
focused professional with the ability to excel in her projects.
  Originally from Dundee, Michigan, Taylor completed her bachelor's 
degree in Women's Studies at the University of Toledo and her master's 
degree in Gender and Sexualities Research at the University of Florida. 
Currently, Taylor is a doctoral candidate at the University of Florida. 
She will receive her PhD in Higher Education Administration and Policy 
after successfully defending her dissertation, which focuses on the 
exploration of college trajectories among young persons with adverse 
childhood experiences, in the Summer of 2023. Taylor will use her 
passion for education equity to continue her policy research and 
advocate for improve conditions for marginalized communities.
  The first fellow to serve in the University of Florida's Legislative 
Education Fellows program, Taylor has made my office proud to receive 
the university's inaugural fellow.
  On behalf of Florida's 24th Congressional District, I ask my 
colleagues to join me in honoring Taylor Burtch for her inevitable 
success.
