                      Wednesday, November 28, 2018

  Mr. MESSER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor the individuals who 
served on the 6th Congressional District Agriculture Advisory 
Committee.
  The members of the Advisory Committee met with my team regularly to 
discuss emerging agriculture issues in Indiana. Agriculture has played 
a critical role in Indiana's economy throughout our state's history. 
Indiana is home to nearly 60,000 farms that produce a wide variety of 
crops and livestock. The Committee's valuable insight helped me better 
represent Hoosier farmers' priorities in Congress.
  I would like to thank all of the members of the Committee, including 
Anngie Steinbarger, David Howell, Mark Bacon, Matt Chapman, Elaine 
Gillis, Jim Douglas, Gerald Guack, Leah Beyer, Brett Glick, Harold 
Cooper, Jeremy Russell, Eugene Whitehead, Kari Steele, Jonathan Sparks, 
Ed Yanos, Andrew Fix, Clark Jordan, Tom Chalfant, Tyler Silveus, 
Christian McCray, Bryan Fischer, Scott Logue, and Tobe Forshtay.
  I appreciate their service on the Committee and their dedication to 
making Indiana a better place to live for all Hoosiers. I wish all of 
them continued success in whatever God has in store for them and their 
families.

                          ____________________
