                        Tuesday, April 12, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Liz Adelman 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.
  Liz is the founder and CEO of Adelman Public Relations, one of the 
premier public relations firms in Central Iowa. She has also been 
tirelessly dedicated to her community and it's evident through her 
involvement in several area non-profits, including co-founding Art Week 
Des Moines, and fundraising for Central Iowa Shelter and Services, 
Heroes for Homeless, and Cheers for Children. Through all of her 
community involvement and dedication to growing her business Liz still 
finds time to be with her husband and three boys, Michael, Ben, and 
Sammy.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a profound honor to represent leaders like Liz in 
the United States Congress and it is with great pride that I recognize 
and applaud her for utilizing her talents to better both her community 
and the great state of Iowa. I ask my colleagues in the United States 
House of Representatives to join me in congratulating Liz 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.
