  Mr. FONG. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to commend and celebrate the 
exceptional interns who have devoted their summer to serving the people 
of California's 20th Congressional District. From my offices in 
Washington, D.C., and Bakersfield, California these students have 
exhibited maturity well beyond their years, offering their time, 
talents, and energy to support my work in meaningful ways. Their 
contributions have been a powerful reminder of the potential and 
promise embodied by the next generation. At a time when many young 
Americans are contemplating their role in civic life, these interns 
chose to engage directly with purpose and passion.
  As all the summer Congressional internships come to a close, I want 
to express my deepest gratitude to Nikhil Bawa for his contributions to 
my Washington, D.C. office. His hard work has been instrumental to my 
team's efforts, and I am confident that the experiences and lessons he 
has gained will guide him toward continued success in his future 
endeavors in public service. I look forward to seeing where his path 
leads, and I hope that path includes a continued dedication to serving 
others.
