                        HON. THOMAS G. TANCREDO

                              of colorado

                    in the house of representatives

                          Tuesday, May 1, 2007

  Mr. TANCREDO. Madam Speaker, today I am honored to recognize Nick 
Nemeth of Chapparal High School in Parker, Colorado. As a sophomore, 
Mr. Nemeth received an invitation to attend a 10-day National Young 
Leaders Conference this summer in Washington, DC.
  Mr. Nemeth has demonstrated outstanding academic and leadership 
qualities as a young man, and is an archetype of his school and 
community. Completing the academic school year first in his class, he 
was chosen as a National Scholar, an honor presented to less than one 
percent of all qualified high-school students.
  Students chosen to attend the National Young Leaders Conference are 
hand selected based on both their academic achievement and 
recommendations by educators, mentors, and community leaders.
  The National Young Leaders Conference is a forum for promising youth 
designed to inspire and foster their full leadership potential. 
Supported by over 400 members from the U.S. Congress, this program 
provides young men and women a rare opportunity to gain an insider's 
perspective into the legislative and political process of Washington 
D.C. This unique interaction and exposure enables them to formulate 
valuable perspectives which will help them guide their communities into 
the future.
  Madam Speaker, it is my distinct pleasure to acknowledge one of 
Colorado's own as one of America's young leaders. Please join me in 
congratulating Mr. Nemeth and wishing him well in his future endeavors.

                          ____________________
