  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Ruth and Jim Brand of Mount Ayr, Iowa, on the very special 
occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary. They celebrated on March 3, 
2018.
  Ruth and Jim's lifelong commitment to each other and their family 
truly embodies our Iowa values. As they reflect on their 50th 
anniversary, may their commitment grow even stronger, as they continue 
to love, cherish, and honor one another for many years to come.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend this great couple on their 50th year together 
and I wish them many more. I ask that my colleagues in the United 
States House of Representatives join me in congratulating them on this 
meaningful occasion and in wishing them both nothing but continued 
happiness.
