                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                     Wednesday, September 28, 2016

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Julie Walters of Villisca, Iowa, for being selected as a 
2016 Women Impacting the Land award recipient.
  The Women Impacting the Land award showcases Iowa women for their 
contributions to managing farmland and livestock. While serving as the 
Page County Clerk of Court for the last 31 years, Julie has also worked 
on her family's cattle farm with her husband Dave. She attributes some 
of her extensive knowledge of cattle farming to courses she 
participated in over the years, like Annie's Project and Women Managing 
Cattle. Julie is constantly fine-tuning her family's cattle operation 
and making changes to improve their farm's productivity.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend Julie for her hard work and dedication in 
improving and managing her family's farm. Her efforts embody the Iowa 
spirit and I am honored to represent her in the United States Congress. 
I ask that all of my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating Julie for her achievements 
and in wishing her nothing but continued success.
