                        Thursday, April 21, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Candy Heyer of Council Bluffs, Iowa, for being recognized 
by the Horatio Alger Foundation to receive the 2016 State-Level Award 
for Iowa. Candy is a student at Abraham Lincoln High School in Council 
Bluffs, Iowa.
  Candy was selected for this award for her commitment in continuing 
her education and for serving her community. Candy maintained an ``A'' 
grade and scored at one of the highest levels on her ACT test. Candy 
will receive substantial funds to use towards her college tuition 
costs. Sarah Steinmetz, the Talented and Gifted Strategist at Abraham 
Lincoln High School said, ``Candy is a young lady who strives 110 
percent to go above and beyond what is expected of her and is deserving 
of this award.''
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud and congratulate Candy for being selected to 
receive this award. I am proud to represent her in the United States 
Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Candy and in wishing her 
nothing but continued success.
