                   HONORING THE LIFE OF ARON JOHNSON

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor the life of 
a son of eastern North Carolina, Aron Johnson. At just 30 years old, 
Aron was more than an organizer. He was a bridge builder who believed 
that our rural communities deserved a seat at every table.
  He was a dreamer of big dreams and a fighter of hard fights who 
proved that we don't need a long life to make a big difference. While 
he left us far too soon, his legacy of empowerment lives on in many 
communities across our State.
  My heartfelt condolences go out to his mother, Mary, and his family 
as we celebrate a young leader who gave his all to so many.
