On the recordNovember 8, 2001
as the House and Senate conferees work to complete the job of the President's number one domestic issue, No Child Left Behind and the reform of education, I think it is appropriate that we pay tribute to those that every day teach our children, America's teachers. In particular, to one particular teacher in Georgia, Mr. Brad Cohen, a man who suffers from what many call an affliction, Tourette's syndrome. People would never think Brad Cohen would be a teacher. Instead, Brad Cohen calls Tourette's his friend, not his enemy. He has been recognized as Teacher of the Year, he teaches elementary at-risk children to read. He has changed their lives and taught them to appreciate that one's disability can be one's advantage with the right attitude. Mr. Speaker, I pay tribute to Brad Cohen and all of America's teachers.
