  Mr. PORTER. Madam Speaker, it is my distinct pleasure to rise today 
to honor Mrs. Lynn Marlett by entering her name in the Congressional 
Record, the official record of the proceedings and debates of the 
United States Congress since 1873. Today I honor Mrs. Lynn Marlett for 
her distinguished and devoted service to her profession and to our 
community as a registered nurse.
  Mrs. Marlett has worked in the Las Vegas area as a Certified Nurse 
Practitioner since 1999, specializing in gastroenterology. Mrs. Marlett 
has also closely worked with patients on treatment and collecting data 
regarding Chronic Hepatitis C.
  Mrs. Marlett has extensive knowledge in treating patients with 
Hepatitis C as well as Cirrhosis and Liver Cancer. Recently, Ms. 
Marlett has worked with the Health District of Nevada as an Educational 
Liaison. Her research and knowledge were an invaluable resource for the 
Health District and her colleagues as a whole. Lynn's professionalism 
and compassion have earned her the respect of her colleagues and have 
made her invaluable to her patients.
  Mrs. Marlett resides in Las Vegas, Nevada with her husband and two 
daughters.
  Madam Speaker, I am proud to honor Lynn Marlett. Her commitment, 
passion, and dedication to nursing have improved the lives of countless 
patients in Las Vegas. I thank her for her dedication and commitment to 
the community and wish her the best in her future endeavors.
