                       Friday, September 28, 2018

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Louise Simpson of Shenandoah, Iowa on her 100th birthday. 
Mildred celebrated her birthday on September 11, 2018.
  Our world has changed a great deal during the course of Louise's 
life. Since her 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. Louise has 
lived through eighteen United States Presidents and twenty-five 
Governors of lowa. In her lifetime, the population of the United States 
has more than tripled.
  Mr. Speaker, it is an honor to represent Louise in the United States 
Congress and it is my pleasure to wish her a very happy 100th birthday. 
I ask that my colleagues in the House of Representatives join me in 
congratulating Louise on reaching this incredible milestone, and 
wishing her even more health and happiness in the years to come.
