  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Michael Sporkin 
from Katy, TX for being accepted into the National Academy of Future 
Scientists and Technologists to represent the state of Texas at the 
Congress of Future Science and Technology leaders.
  Michael attends Cinco Ranch High School and is one of 13 high school 
honor students selected from the Twenty-Second Congressional District 
of Texas. These students were selected as Texas delegates at the 
Congress of Future Science and Technology Leaders. This program was 
designed for high school students to be recognized for their hard work 
in school, as well as to support their aspirations of working in a 
science or technology field. The National Academy was founded by 
Richard Rossi and Dr. Robert Darling; Mr. Rossi currently serves as 
president. The Congress is being held at the Tsongas Center at the 
University of Massachusetts, Lowell from June 29th through July 1st. 
Michael was selected by a group of educators to be a delegate for the 
Congress thanks to his dedication to his academic success and goals of 
pursuing science or technology. We are proud of Michael and all of his 
hard work, and know he will make Katy proud.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Michael for being accepted into the National 
Academy of Future Scientists and Technologists. Keep up the great work.
