                  HONORING EAST BRUNSWICK HIGH SCHOOL

 Mr. LAUTENBERG. Mr. President, more than 1200 students from 
across the Nation will be competing in the finals of the ``We the 
People: The Citizen and the Constitution'' program here in Washington, 
DC, from April 30-May 2, 2005. This program is funded by the U.S. 
Department of Education and is designed specifically to educate our 
young people about the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights, and the 
importance of civic participation to our political process. Schools are 
provided with textbooks that offer both historical information and 
critical-thinking activities, and students compete in the format of a 
congressional hearing to show their knowledge of our democracy.
  I am proud to announce that students from East Brunswick High School 
in East Brunswick, NJ, will be returning this year to defend their 
national title earned in May 2004. East Brunswick High School won my 
home State's competition again this year and will represent New Jersey 
in our Nation's Capital this weekend. I wish the following students, 
and their teacher Alan Brodman, the best of luck in the future and 
congratulate them on their hard work and inspiring civic advocacy: 
Rajiv Agarwal, Elliot Chiu, Theresa Cui, Yan Cui, Aditi Eleswarapu, 
Michael Genson, Stephanie Horwitz, Frances,Huang, Manisha Johary, 
Michael Kofsky, Kevin Kuo, Sam Lau, Alexandra Palmer, Resham Patel, 
Mark Pruce, Panwan Punjabi, Caroline Rana, Natalie Rana, Sana Sheikh, 
Allison Sorkin, Ilana Stern, Eric Struening, and Lauren 
Volosin.
