                          TRIBUTE TO RIO SMITH

 Mr. BARRASSO. Mr. President, I would like to take the 
opportunity to express my appreciation to Rio Smith for his hard work 
as an intern in the U.S. Senate Committee on Indian Affairs. I 
recognize his efforts and contributions to my office as well as to the 
State of Wyoming.
  Rio is a native of Wyoming and graduated from Cheyenne Central High 
School. He attends Stonehill College in Massachusetts where he is 
majoring in business administration. Throughout his internship, he has 
demonstrated a strong work ethic which has made him an invaluable asset 
to our office. The quality of his work is reflected in his great 
efforts over the time he has been with us.
  I want to thank Rio for the dedication he has shown while working for 
me and my staff. It was a pleasure to have him as part of our team. I 
know he will have continued success with all of his future endeavors. I 
wish him all my best on his next journey.
