                       Tuesday, January 12, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Mr. Roger Maxwell. Roger has been chosen for induction 
into the University of Northern Iowa (UNI) School of Music ``Jazz Hall 
of Fame''. He will be inducted on April 8, 2016 in Cedar Falls, Iowa.
  Roger was a graduate of the Iowa State Teachers' College, now known 
as the University of Northern Iowa. His years as an advocate for music 
and higher education, his talents as a composer of music educational 
materials, and his hard work as a founding member of the jazz program 
at UNI are all examples of his dedication to the art of music. It is a 
great honor to be chosen as a member of the ``Jazz Hall of Fame'' at 
UNI.
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud and congratulate Roger for this award and for 
sharing his musical talents and knowledge. I am proud to represent him 
in the United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United 
States House of Representatives join me in congratulating Roger and 
wishing him nothing but continue success.
