                         RECOGNIZING JAY KISLAK

  (Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. ROS-LEHTINEN. Mr. Speaker, I would like to recognize Jay Kislak, 
an outstanding member of the South Florida community.
  Jay is the chairman of the Jay I. Kislak Foundation, which is engaged 
in a collection of rare books, manuscripts, maps, and indigenous art of 
the Americas.
  Through his foundation, Jay has worked to ensure that present and 
future generations will have a deeper understanding of our glorious 
past.
  As a testament to his expansive knowledge and appreciation for art, 
Jay was appointed by President Bush to be chairman of the Cultural 
Property Advisory Committee, a group tasked with directing the 
government's efforts to protect antiquities around the world.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in recognizing Jay Kislak for his 
profound contribution to the cultural enrichment of our community and 
our Nation.
