                      Thursday, September 20, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate and 
recognize Mary Coffin, executive vice president for customer excellence 
for Wells Fargo & Co., for being named a 2018 Women of Influence 
honoree by the award-winning central Iowa publication, Business Record.
  For 19 years, the Business Record has undertaken an exhaustive annual 
review to identify a standout group of women who have made a 
significant difference in business, civic, and philanthropic endeavours 
throughout the Greater Des Moines Area.
  Mary Coffin works diligently for Wells Fargo, one of the nation's 
largest bank, and has been called upon to testify before Congress six 
times. She also met with former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson to 
explain mortgage lending during the recent banking crisis. She now 
leads a team that ensures consistent complaints management and improves 
customer service experiences. Mary cofounded Financial Executive Women, 
which encourages young women to be involved in the financial industry 
and she is strongly committed to the Boys and Girls Central Iowa.
  Mr. Speaker, it is a profound honor to represent leaders like Mary 
Coffin in the United States Congress and it is with great pride that I 
recognize and applaud her for utilizing her talents to better both her 
community and the great state of Iowa. I invite my colleagues in the 
House to join me in congratulating Mary on receiving this esteemed 
designation, thanking those at Business Record for their great work, 
and wishing Ms. Coffin the very best.
