                         REMEMBERING DON YOUNG

  (Mr. COHEN asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. COHEN. Mr. Speaker, this past week, we celebrated the life of Don 
Young, the dean of the House with 49 years here representing the State 
of Alaska. He was a Republican. But before he was a Republican, he was 
an American. He wanted this House to work and this House to work 
together.
  Don Young voted for the bipartisan infrastructure bill because he 
knew infrastructure, roads, airports, river ports, and trains made this 
country move and made business happen.
  I hope we will not forget Don Young, not just because of his 
oversized and loveable personality and the warmth that he exuded to all 
of us, but for the fact that he was bipartisan and wanted this House to 
work.
  There is a motto up there, above the Speaker's lectern, that says: 
Get something done while you are here that is memorable and important.
  Look at that and remember Don Young.
