                     TRIBUTE TO 2024 SPRING INTERNS

 Mr. RICKETTS. Mr. President, today I stand before you to 
express my gratitude and admiration for the exceptional students who 
joined our team as spring interns in 2024.
  These talented young women and men brought a unique blend of 
enthusiasm, dedication, and a passion for making a difference to my 
offices in Washington, DC, office and across the State of Nebraska. Our 
interns have consistently shown a motivation to learn and a strong 
commitment to our State. Their presence has not only enriched our 
workspace, but also inspired my team and me. As the torchbearers of the 
next generation, their spirit and determination fill us with 
anticipation for what the future holds.
  As they leave our office, I want to take a moment to extend my 
sincerest thanks to: Reese Clarke, Nathan Muilenburg, and Jack Smith, 
who served in my Washington, DC, office; Paxton Robertson, who served 
in my Kearney office; Abbie Russman, who served in my Omaha office; and 
William Funke, who served in my Lincoln office.
  Your dedication and contributions have truly made our team stronger. 
I hope you will carry the lessons learned here into your bright 
futures. Congratulations, and best of luck.
