                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 27, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Van Wall Equipment in Perry, Iowa, on being named the 2016 
Dealership of the Year by Farm Equipment magazine.
  Van Wall, founded in 1977, is recognized for their continued growth, 
having added 11 agricultural stores, one Powersports store, and one 
Doosan Material Handling dealership since 2014. Van Wall Equipment was 
recognized for keeping diversification at the forefront by selling crop 
insurance, artistic concrete, and soil moisture monitors. Don Van 
Houweling, the owner and general manager of Van Wall Equipment, credits 
the great employees he has had over the years, telling the Dallas 
County News that the dealership motto is ``the clear first choice.''
  Mr. Speaker, I commend Van Wall Equipment for earning the 2016 
Dealership of the Year award, and for their nearly 35 years of service 
to Iowa farmers. I urge my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives to join me in congratulating Van Wall Equipment and 
wishing them nothing but continued success.
