                 ILLINOIS' 14TH DISTRICT 2012 OLYMPIANS

  (Mr. HULTGREN asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. HULTGREN. Mr. Speaker, I am proud to recognize the remarkable 
accomplishments of six athletes from Illinois' 14th Congressional 
District who will represent the United States at the 2012 Olympics in 
London. Twin brothers Grant and Ross James from DeKalb will both 
compete as part of the men's eight rowing team. Track and field athlete 
Evan Jager of Algonquin will compete in the steeplechase. Anna Li of 
Aurora will travel to London as an alternate member of the women's 
gymnastics team. Charlie Jayne of Elgin will serve as alternate for the 
equestrian team. Finally, the men's volleyball team will include Sean 
Rooney, a graduate of Wheaton-Warrenville South High School.
  Each of these men and women are making us so proud as they represent 
Illinois and the United States this summer. The House of 
Representatives wishes them the best of luck.
