                         Tuesday, June 24, 2008

  Mr. BURGESS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to the 
Leadership Training Institute of America, the leading training program 
for students seeking instruction in the personal development of 
leadership and character. Their training program gives students the 
necessary tools to lead the next generation of young Americans in the 
traditions, principles, and wisdom imparted to us by our Founding 
Fathers. The quality of this training assures me of America's bright 
future as the leader of the world.
  The Leadership Training Institute of America is a cultural think tank 
providing training and opportunity in leadership development and 
cultural dynamics. This organization encourages youth to apply and 
excel in leadership and critical thinking skills, study world view 
conflicts and strategies, network with outstanding leaders, and pursue 
careers in influential sectors of society.
  The Leadership Training Institute of America trains and equips young 
men and women to be leaders with high standards of personal morality 
and integrity. The participants are exposed to the major philosophies, 
views, and issues of our world today and are encouraged to become 
leaders with convictions built on scientific knowledge, historical 
record, and Biblical wisdom.
  Our Nation is in great need of young men and women of character to 
lead in every arena of our society.
  So, it is with great appreciation that I rise today to commend the 
vision and accomplishments of the Leadership Training Institute of 
America. I salute the dedicated staff of this outstanding organization 
and encourage its increased influence among our Nation's youth.
