                TAKE OUR DAUGHTERS AND SONS TO WORK DAY

  Ms. LANDRIEU. As a wonderful Senator from New Mexico, and also as a 
father of many girls and a grandfather, I know the Senator can 
appreciate the day we are celebrating today, which is Take Our 
Daughters and Sons to Work Day. We have literally hundreds of young 
people who are in the Chamber today. They have been around the Senate 
and the House celebrating this very special day, seeing their parents 
at work in the Senate and in the Capitol, not only as elected officials 
but as the staffers and support staff.
  I have 20 young ladies with me today, nieces and friends from 
Louisiana, from Alabama, and from the Washington area. I am going to 
submit all of their names for the Record to show that they spent a day 
working in the Senate with me and with some of the other Senators and 
have seen firsthand the work that goes on.
  I want to acknowledge MS Magazine Foundation that started Take Our 
Daughters and Sons to Work Day to thank them for organizing this effort 
where there are thousands, maybe perhaps millions, of young people who 
have taken a day out of their school work to go to the various places 
where Americans are working to contribute to making this country of 
ours a better country and this world a better place.
  As we celebrate Earth Day today, which is also very important as we 
focus on the environment, I wanted to acknowledge this day. I thank my 
friend from New Mexico for giving me this time and I ask unanimous 
consent to have printed in the Record the names of these young ladies 
and thank them for being a part of this special day and taking their 
time to come and learn about the workings of the Senate.
  There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in
