Volume 165, No. 73 covering the 1st Session of the 116th Congress (2019 - 2020) was published by the Congressional Record.

The Congressional Record is a unique source of public documentation. It started in 1873, documenting nearly all the major and minor policies being discussed and debated.

“IN RECOGNITION OF NATHAN EDGERTON” mentioning the U.S. Dept of State was published in the Extensions of Remarks section on pages E540 on May 3, 2019.

The State Department is responsibly for international relations with a budget of more than $50 billion. Tenure at the State Dept. is increasingly tenuous and it's seen as an extension of the President's will, ambitions and flaws.

IN RECOGNITION OF NATHAN EDGERTON

______

HON. MICHAEL C. BURGESS

of texas

in the house of representatives

Friday, May 3, 2019

Mr. BURGESS. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize Nathan Edgerton as he receives the North Texas in DC Internship Program Legacy Award.

The NTDC Program connects University of North Texas students with internship opportunities in our nation's capital. Nathan began his long career in public service as an intern in my Washington, D.C. office. Since then, he has spent more than a decade helping government and nonprofit organizations with strategic planning, grants, and community resource management.

Currently, Nathan serves as a Bureau Planner for the Bureau of Near Eastern Affairs at the Department of State. In this role, he manages the foreign assistance budget planning and justification process for the department's $7 billion budget that includes economic, multilateral, law enforcement, and security assistance programs that support U.S. foreign policy objectives and interests throughout the Middle East and North Africa. He previously served as a Grants Management Officer supporting economic and public diplomacy programs in NEA and the Bureau of South and Central Asian Affairs.

Additionally, Nathan served North Texans as the Director of Health Grants at the United Way of Metropolitan Dallas, supporting community organizations striving to improve health outcomes for children and families in Dallas, Collin, Rockwall, and southern Denton counties. He earned his B.A. in political science and M.P.A. with a focus in nonprofit management from UNT.

Throughout his career, Nathan has been known for his expertise, dedication, and hard work. I am grateful that the NTDC Program connected him with my office years ago, and I congratulate my fellow UNT alum on his many achievements.
