          TRIBUTE TO SOUTHERN IOWA REGIONAL HOUSING AUTHORITY

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 20, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Southern 
Iowa Regional Housing Authority (SIRHA), Creston, Iowa on their 40-year 
anniversary. This is an important milestone in their history of service 
to southern Iowa and the Third Congressional District.
  SIRHA provides rent assistance and rent subsidy to low income 
citizens, elderly and disabled persons of the Third Congressional 
District in Iowa. They also rent apartment units to citizens in 
communities that are scattered throughout a six-county area. SIRHA 
programs have helped to create a positive environment to promote self-
sufficiency.
  Mr. Speaker, throughout its many years of service, Southern Iowa 
Regional Housing Authority has successfully provided necessary services 
to the communities of Iowa's Third Congressional District. I 
congratulate SIRHA on this historic anniversary. It is an honor to 
represent its employees in the United States Congress. I wish SIRHA 
nothing but continued success for another 40 years and beyond.

                          ____________________
