                        Thursday, June 24, 2004

  Mr. GORDON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to thank Jason Hicks for his 
help while interning in my office. Jason is a resident of Cookeville, 
TN, which I represent in Tennessee's Sixth Congressional District.
  Jason just finished his freshman year at the University of Tennessee, 
Knoxville, where he is majoring in English and political science. He is 
a member of the Phi Alpha Delta fraternity and vice president of the 
university's Tennessee Debate Society.
  Jason has been a great help and a wonderful addition to my office. He 
has helped address constituent concerns, assisted me and my staff with 
numerous projects, and served as a friendly and informative tour guide 
of the U.S. Capitol, providing visitors from Middle Tennessee with a 
personalized look at a national treasure.
  I trust that Jason has enjoyed his whirlwind internship and his 
first-hand examination of the workings of Congress. I know that I have 
enjoyed having his fresh perspective and enthusiasm during his time 
here.
  My hat is off to Jason Hicks. I wish him all the best in his future 
endeavors.
