                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, April 12, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Josh Braby for being named a 2016 Forty Under 40 honoree 
by the award-winning central Iowa publication, Business Record.
  Since 2000, Business Record has undertaken an exhaustive annual 
review to identify a standout group of young leaders in the Greater Des 
Moines Area that are making an impact in their communities and their 
careers. Each year, forty up-and-coming community and business leaders 
under 40 years of age are selected for this prestigious honor based on 
a combined criteria of community involvement and success in their 
chosen career field. The 2016 class of Forty Under 40 honorees will 
join an impressive roster of 640 business leaders and growing.
  Josh works as a Partner/Project Manager at Neumann Bros. Inc. where 
he works tirelessly to challenge his team by asking them to stick with 
the core values of the company but still finding new, innovative ways 
to improve their overall success. He is driven daily to make the 
thoughts of his clients a reality through hard work and dedication to 
his craft. Josh's passion for construction also translates into his 
civic duties where he is passionate about teaching young people the 
values of a skilled trade that lasts a lifetime. That passion has led 
him to create a program for high school students that educates them 
about construction through hands-on projects.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a profound honor to represent leaders like Josh in 
the United States Congress and it is with great pride that I recognize 
and applaud him for utilizing his talents to better both his community 
and the great state of Iowa. I ask that my colleagues in the United 
States House of Representatives join me in congratulating Josh on 
receiving this esteemed designation, thanking those at Business Record 
for their great work, and wishing each member of the 2016 Forty Under 
40 class a long and successful career.
