           RECOGNIZING THE STENNIS CENTER FOR PUBLIC SERVICE

  Mr. COONS. Mr. President, I rise today to recognize the achievement 
of the Stennis Center for Public Service's service-oriented students, 
following the publication of their journal, the ``Public Service 
Review.''
  For all who are looking for encouragement about the future of our 
country, I want to bring to your attention the most recently published 
issues of ``Public Service Review,'' produced by the Stennis Center for 
Public Service. ``Public Service Review'' features inspiring and 
informative stories from young leaders who share in their own words 
their experiences, insights, hopes, and dreams as they engage in public 
service through internships, jobs, and activities in their communities 
and throughout the world.
  The publication, available on the Stennis Center's website at 
www.stennis.gov, provides a glimpse into the future for all who care 
deeply about the future of American democracy. As they explore the 
challenges and rewards of public service, the commitment of these young 
leaders to help keep our Nation strong and free is truly inspirational.

  ``Public Service Review'' provides these young leaders an opportunity 
to write about their experiences and inspirations in their own words, 
sharing stories of challenge and hope as they engage in public service 
in a variety of formats and focus on a range of causes that draw their 
passion. Not only do their stories inspire those of us engaged in 
public service here in Congress and elsewhere, but their experiences 
provide insights and guidance for younger students as they look for 
ways to become involved in public service.
  On behalf of my colleagues, who I serve with on the Stennis Center 
Board of Trustees, U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, Tom Daffron, U.S. 
Representative Terri Sewell, and former U.S. Representative Martha 
Roby, I commend the Stennis Center for this excellent publication and 
urge you to read it and share it with others who will benefit from 
reading these inspiring stories.
