                           TRIBUTE TO INTERNS

 Mr. HARKIN. Mr. President, today I extend my appreciation to 
my summer 2000 class of interns: Anna Gullickson, Kayla John, Sara Low, 
Charles Wishman, Tom Mann, Alyssa Rotschafer, MayRose Wegmann, Eric 
Bridges, Monica Parekh, Michelle Levar, Joe Plambeck, Ben Rogers, 
Robert Barron, Morgan Whitlatch, Veronica Hernandez, Cary Cascino, 
Daniel Myers, Linda Rosenbury, Ryan Howell, Jay Smith, SreyRam Kuy, and 
Jim Dunn. Each of them has been of tremendous assistance to me and to 
the people of Iowa over the past several months, and their efforts have 
not gone unnoticed.
  Since I was first elected into the Senate in 1984, my office has 
offered internships to young Iowans and other interested students. 
Through their work in the Senate, our interns have not only seen the 
legislative process, but also personally contributed to our nation's 
democracy.
  It is with much appreciation that I recognize Anna, Kayla, Sara, 
Charles, Tom, Alyssa, MayRose, Eric, Monica, Michelle, Joe, Ben, 
Robert, Morgan, Veronica, Cary, Daniel, Linda, Ryan, Jay, SreyRam, and 
Jim for their hard work this summer. It has been a delight to watch 
them take on their assignments with enthusiasm and hard

work. I am very proud to have worked with each of them. I hope they 
take from their summer a sense of pride in what they've been able to 
accomplish and an increased interest in public service and our 
democratic system and process.
