                      Wednesday, October 27, 2021

  Mr. STAUBER. Madam Speaker, today, I am proud to honor the career of 
Linda Andrews, a Minnesota broadcasting legend who is retiring after 35 
years in the radio industry.
  Linda began her radio career as a part-time announcer on KWNG in Red 
Wing and will be concluding it in Brainerd as an experienced 
broadcaster admired by her colleagues and countless listeners across 
the region.
  Linda moved to Brainerd, Minnesota in 1995, where she was a News 
Director and announcer for KLIZ-FM The Power Loon, KKLK-FM and more. In 
2000, she became the midday announcer on WJJY-FM in Brainerd. During 
her tenure at the beloved station, they were awarded multiple Crystal 
Awards and one Service to America Award.
  Over the past 26 years that Linda has spent broadcasting in Brainerd, 
she captivated the local audience and quickly became a fan-favorite in 
the community. She will be dearly missed by all of her listeners.
  Linda's contributions to Brainerd, Minnesota and beyond will never be 
forgotten. I along with the rest of Minnesota's Eighth Congressional 
District wish her nothing but the best in her well-deserved retirement.
