                  MOURNING THE PASSING OF STEVE YOUNG

  (Mr. NEWHOUSE asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. NEWHOUSE. Madam Speaker, I rise today with a heavy heart, as the 
city of Kennewick and the greater Tri-Cities community mourns the loss 
of Councilman and former Mayor Steve Young.
  Steve held the distinction as the second longest-serving mayor in the 
long history of the city of Kennewick, serving the people for nearly a 
decade in that role. But his service went far beyond those years.
  Outside of his continued service as a councilman, Steve's footprint 
stretched far and wide, across not only the city of Kennewick and the 
Tri-Cities but the entire State of Washington.
  His vision, his advocacy, and his passion for serving the community 
will continue on through the many contributions he provided for the 
Tri-Cities.
  The long list of community organizations, nonprofits, and local and 
State boards on which Steve served rightly demonstrate just how 
passionate he was about serving his community.
  My deepest condolences go out to Steve's wife, Anita. My thoughts and 
prayers go out to her and the entire Young family.
  May my friend rest in peace. We will miss him.
