  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Patricia Young of Jamaica, Iowa for receiving the Lifetime 
Achievement Award from the National Alliance of State and Territorial 
AIDS Directors (NASTAD).
  Ms. Young manages the Iowa HIV and Hepatitis Prevention Program. She 
earned the award because of her passion, leadership and dedication in 
working to improve the lives of people living with HIV and hepatitis as 
well as her tireless service and devotion to NASTAD. She has engaged in 
HIV prevention and care for nearly three decades and has held many 
roles in the Iowa Department of Health including prevention, care and 
community planning.
  Mr. Speaker, it's an honor to represent Iowans like Patricia Young in 
the United States Congress. I ask that my colleagues in the United 
States House of Representatives join me in congratulating her on 
receiving this award and in wishing her nothing but continued success.
