  Mrs. BUSTOS. Mr. Speaker, I am especially proud to rise today, on 
National Ag Day, to congratulate Chad and Deb Bremmer of Pearl City, 
Illinois on receiving the National Outstanding Young Farmers Award.
  Chad and Deb are being recognized for their great contributions to 
our agricultural community, and for their efforts to foster a deeper 
understanding of the role farmer's play in our region's economy. In 
addition to operating their family farm, Chad has gone above and beyond 
by serving on the Stephenson County Farm Bureau Board for twelve years, 
the Pearl City School Board for eight years and the State Young Leader 
Committee for four years. In addition, Deb also serves as a nurse. 
Their work has without a doubt invested in the future of our region, 
and the lives of our family farmers.
  Mr. Speaker, I would like to thank Chad and Deb for their service to 
better our communities. It is because of hardworking families like the 
Bremmers, that I am especially proud to serve Illinois' 17th 
Congressional District. I congratulate them again on their well-earned 
achievement and wish them the best of luck in their future endeavors.
