                           HON. JON C. PORTER

                    in the house of representatives

                         Friday, April 2, 2004

  Mr. PORTER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to acknowledge the achievement 
of an outstanding young man, Sean Butler. Through hard work and 
dedication he has achieved his goal, a goal that few young men have the 
courage, dedication, and character to achieve.
  Sean's dedication has given him the title of Eagle Scout within the 
Boy Scouts of America. This program has long been recognized as a 
program that builds strong minds upon sound morals. Achieving an Eagle 
Scout status shows that this young man has participated in projects and 
activities that will help him become a strong man in life. It has shown 
him how to set reasonable and accomplishable goals, a value that will 
put him considerably ahead of his peers.
  The Boy Scouts of America is a great building block for our youth and 
it is quite an achievement, with so many other activities available, 
for young men to receive their Eagle Scout Award. It is my hope that he 
will hold this award as a special honor; to always remember the 
principles and teachings he has learned, and to use this award as a 
tool in his future.
