                        HONORING ANDREW STUCKEY

  (Mr. GOHMERT asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. GOHMERT. Mr. Speaker, I come to the floor today to congratulate a 
remarkable young constituent of mine, Mr. Andrew Stuckey.
  Andrew is a high school student senior from Longview, Texas, an 
extremely bright young man who is planning to attend Texas A&M 
University after he graduates; he also happens to be deaf. He is very 
involved in SkillsUSA, a national organization serving teachers and 
high school and college students who are preparing for careers in 
technical, skilled and service occupations, including health 
occupations.
  More than 280,000 students and instructors join SkillsUSA annually, 
organized into more than 14,700 sections, and 54 State and territorial 
associations.
  SkillsUSA has served more than 8.8 million members. Andrew is a 
talented drafter and won ``best in show'' for his work in the district 
competition. He currently serves as a SkillsUSA Texas State 
Parliamentarian for 2005 and 2006.
  Mr. Stuckey is an extremely focused, motivated young gentleman; and I 
have no doubt that he will succeed in whatever career path he chooses. 
Again, I come to the well to pay tribute to a hard-working young man, 
and may God bless him in all of his future endeavors.
