                        Thursday, April 21, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Kevin Lin of Council Bluffs, Iowa, for being selected to 
receive the 2016 Horatio Alger Association National Scholarship. Kevin 
Lin is a student at Abraham Lincoln High School in Council Bluffs, 
Iowa.
  Kevin and other selected students for the scholarship earned a point 
grade average of 5.76 with an outstanding ACT score. Kevin will receive 
a scholarship that will help him benefit from a variety of resources 
such as college preparation, counseling, and mentoring programs. Sarah 
Steinmetz, the Talented and Gifted Strategist at Abraham Lincoln High 
School said, ``Kevin is an exceptional young man who is a leader and 
works extremely hard. His resume is incredible for a 16-year-old.''
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud and congratulate Kevin on his recognition from 
the Horatio Alger Foundation. 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 Kevin Lin and in wishing him 
nothing but continued success.
