                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 2, 2019

  Mr. FITZPATRICK. Madam Speaker, for nearly two decades, the U.S. 
Department of State's Benjamin A. Gilman International Student Program 
has afforded qualified American students the ability to study abroad. 
To date, over 28,000 outstanding Americans representing 1,300 colleges 
and universities have studied in over 150 countries as part of this 
program. Students selected represent diverse backgrounds and engage in 
a unique educational experience that gives them skills related to 
national security and economic competitiveness.
  I rise today to recognize the prestigious accomplishment of my 
constituent, Taylor Boyer of Doylestown, who received a Benjamin A. 
Gilman International Scholarship to study abroad in Belize during the 
2017-2018 academic year while a student at Delaware Valley University.
  On behalf of all residents of the First Congressional District, I 
congratulate Taylor on this outstanding achievement.
