                       Tuesday, October 20, 2015

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Marion Dresdow on the celebration of her 100th birthday.
  Our world has changed a great deal during the course of Marion's 
life. Since her birth, we have revolutionized air travel and walked on 
the moon. We have invented the television, cellular phones, and the 
internet. We have fought in wars overseas, seen the rise and fall of 
Soviet communism, and witnessed the birth of new democracies. Marion 
has lived through 17 United States Presidents and 24 Governors of Iowa. 
In her lifetime, the population of the United States has more than 
tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Marion in the United States 
Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 100th birthday. 
I invite my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives to 
join me in congratulating Marion on reaching this incredible milestone, 
and wishing her even more health and happiness in the years to come.
