                      RECOGNIZING STEVE MEINHAUSEN

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Texas (Mr. Cloud) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. CLOUD. Madam Speaker, today, I rise to recognize an extraordinary 
friend and great servant of the Texas 27th Congressional District, 
Steve Meinhausen.
  Steve came to Texas in 2004 with his wife, Carrie, and four children: 
Matthew, Makenna, Kacey, and Ellie. Steve and his family brought 
selfless hearts and an entrepreneurial spirit to our part of south 
Texas.
  Steve opened many businesses during his time, the most famous being 
Stevie Lew's BBQ. In 2017, when Hurricane Harvey hit Rockport, among 
his many generous community endeavors, Steve graciously opened his 
restaurant to feed over 12,000 meals to volunteers and others in need.
  Steve has built for his family a legacy of generosity, a sincere love 
of God, and a strong work ethic. I thank Steve for all he has done for 
the many people he has blessed in the Rockport-Fulton area. He is truly 
a servant of God and an exemplary citizen.
  It is my honor to recognize Steve for his outstanding service and 
dedication to family, to community, and to our Nation.
