                    RECOGNIZING NATIONAL INTERN DAY

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
National Intern Day, celebrated this year on July 30. This day is 
dedicated to recognizing and celebrating the future leaders of the 
world: interns.
  This day serves as an opportunity for thousands of employers to 
commemorate and thank their hardworking interns. I take this time to 
recognize and thank the interns who joined me this summer--both in my 
personal office and on the Agriculture Committee--for their efforts.
  Chloe, a Pennsylvanian and descendant of dairy farmers, worked in my 
personal office and was instrumental in helping the people of 
Pennsylvania's 15th Congressional District.
  Jimmy, Katelyn, Harper, Raymond, and Madison supported the 
Agriculture Committee staff through dozens of hearings, roundtables, 
and other committee events as we work on behalf of farmers and ranchers 
across all 50 States.
  From leading tours, helping constituents, drafting speeches, and 
attending briefings, these interns were a fantastic addition to my 
offices this summer.
  Mr. Speaker, our interns are some of the best and brightest across 
our Nation. They should be proud of all that they have accomplished 
this summer.
