                    in the house of representatives

                       Wednesday, April 18, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate the Deter Motor Company of Atlantic. The company opened 
their doors in 1964 with a plan to help people with their 
transportation needs.
  The dealership is a full service business and offers numerous brands 
at its current location on Second Street in Atlantic. The company has 
32 employees who assist customers in sales and service. Rod Deter, 
manager of the Deter Motor Company, said, ``it is a challenge to learn 
a new business after a career in electronics and software. Any business 
is about helping people no matter what the product is. I have always 
liked the car business, because it is a rewarding career to get people 
into the vehicle they want and to keep it running properly.''
  Mr. Speaker, I commend Rod and his staff for their dedicated service 
to Atlantic. I ask that my colleagues in the United States House of 
Representatives join me in congratulating the Deter Motor Company for 
their many achievements in the auto industry and in wishing Rod, his 
family, and employees nothing but the best.
