                      TRIBUTE TO MICHELLE JOHNSON

 Mr. DAINES. Mr. President, today I have the honor to recognize 
Michelle Johnson as Montanan of the Month.
  Michelle Johnson is a resident of Great Falls, MT, and has made 
tremendous impacts to the community over the years. Michelle serves as 
a counselor and PCMHI specialist in Great Falls. Prior to her career as 
a mental health specialist, Michelle served as a medical logistician 
helping veterans at the VA beginning in 2006 and rose to the role of 
noncommissioned officer-in-charge of medical contracting. While 
advancing her roles with the VA, Michelle simultaneously completed a 
master's degree in clinical health counseling.
  Michelle has dedicated selfless hours of work to the veterans 
community in Montana. She has assisted hundreds of veterans with mental 
health recovery. She also established the VA's only Low Energy 
Neurofeedback System (LENS) Clinic, that has significantly contributed 
to improving PTSD and mental health recovery for veterans seeking 
treatment.
  Michelle Johnson's service, innovation, compassion, and unwavering 
support to the veterans community is outstanding, and I commend her for 
her selfless contributions. Michelle embodies the meaning of service 
and the very best of Montana. It is my distinct honor to recognize 
Michelle Johnson as Montanan of the Month.
