  Mr. JOHNSON of Georgia. Madam Speaker, in the Fourth Congressional 
District of Georgia, many organizations strive to bring awareness and 
enlightenment to our community.
  The Asian Cultural Experience has been a unique showcase for 
different Asian cultures in the Metro Atlanta area.
  The past 14 years have been and continue to be a great gift of music, 
dance, food, art, native crafts, and fashion of the many different 
Asian countries from around the world.
  We have found a jewel in this annual event that touches the minds and 
hearts of so many. Our community has been strengthened, our lives have 
been touched, and our spirits uplifted.
  The 2007 Asian Cultural Experience is being presented at the Atlanta 
Botanical Garden on July 14-15, 2007. I was pleased to proclaim July 
14, 2007, and July 15, 2007, as the Asian Cultural Experience Days in 
the 4th Congressional District.
