                         Friday, August 9, 2019

  Mr. MEUSER. Madam Speaker, it is with great respect and excitement 
that I rise today to honor Katherine Rapp of Paxinos, Pennsylvania. 
Katherine is this year's National Junior Miss Agriculture USA.
  Katherine is an exceptional young woman who is incredibly engaged in 
her community. This Fall, she will attend Danville Area High School and 
participate in Future Farmers of America and the National Honor 
Society. At her young age, she has already won Grand and Reserve market 
hogs at the Bloomsburg Fair and was Grand Champion Market Steer at the 
Montour-Delong Fair. Given her passion for agriculture, she chose to 
participate in this year's Miss Agriculture USA competition. I can 
think of nobody better to promote American agriculture, and our strong 
Pennsylvania farms and dairies than Katherine.
  I ask my colleagues to join me in commending Katherine on her 
commitment to agriculture. On behalf of the citizens of Pennsylvania's 
Ninth Congressional District, and the U.S. House of Representatives, I 
congratulate Katherine on her crown and wish her the best in this and 
all her future endeavors.
