                         Wednesday, May 9, 2001

  Mr. LUTHER. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
celebrate National Teacher's Day and to recognize the remarkable 
educators who have dedicated themselves to educating the students of 
our country.
  Since my election to the U.S. House of Representatives in 1994, I 
have had an opportunity to visit many schools in Minnesota and in every 
school I have found an amazing group of men and women dedicated to 
preparing our children for the future. As they create new and 
innovative ways of teaching, these educators are true professionals 
committed to their task while facing the difficult challenges of 
today's world.
  I commend the teachers of my district for their dedication and 
perservance in inspiring our nation's youth to achieve their goals and 
dreams. I ask everyone to join me.
