                        HONORING JONATHAN NABAVI

  (Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to address 
the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. JOYCE of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, today, I proudly rise to 
honor former Penn State football player and Academic All-Big Ten 
honoree, Jonathan Nabavi, as he takes his next steps in his 
professional career.
  As the son of Rosemary Nabavi and Dr. Abbey Nabavi, Jonathan spent 
his childhood growing up in beautiful State College, Pennsylvania, 
watching Penn State football games and learning the game. He didn't 
have to travel too far as he went on to play for the Nittany Lions at 
Beaver Stadium and graduated from Penn State in 2004. He then attended 
the George Washington University Law School, where he earned his degree 
and later developed a career here on Capitol Hill.
  Jonathan's passion for one of America's most popular sports carried 
into his professional life, supporting our largest sport, football in 
the NFL.
  As Jonathan takes the next steps in his career, I wish him; his wife, 
Catherine; their two beautiful daughters, Layla and Eloise, the best of 
luck in the next chapter of his incredible career. We are Penn State.
