                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, April 5, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Bud Holtz of Avoca, Iowa on the very special occasion of 
his 100th birthday. Bud celebrated his birthday on February 7, 2018.
  Our world has changed a great deal during the course of Bud's life. 
Since his birth, we have revolutionized air travel and walked on the 
moon. We have invented the television, cellular phones and the 
internet. We have fought in wars overseas, seen the rise and fall of 
Soviet communism and witnessed the birth of new democracies. Bud has 
lived through eighteen United States Presidents and twenty-five 
Governors of Iowa. In his lifetime, the population of the United States 
has more than tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Bud in the United States 
Congress and it is my pleasure to wish him a very happy 100th birthday. 
I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of Representatives 
join me in congratulating Bud on reaching this incredible milestone, 
and wishing him even more health and happiness in the years to come.
