                   CELEBRATING 75 YEARS OF KWAM RADIO

  (Mr. KUSTOFF asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. KUSTOFF. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate the 75th 
anniversary of The Mighty 990 radio station in Memphis. Its call 
letters, KWAM, stand for We Are Memphis.
  Over the years, legendary musicians, including Elvis Presley, have 
been associated with The Mighty 990.
  Today, the radio station is owned by Memphis native, Todd Starnes who 
transformed KWAM into a news talk radio station with an emphasis on 
developing local talent.
  KWAM is a strong voice for people across west Tennessee and the 
entire country broadcasting from the banks of the mighty Mississippi.
  KWAM's roster of talent includes Todd Starnes' nationally syndicated 
show, Tim Van Horn, and Earle Farrell, along with Chett and Dr. Sherrie 
Hopper.
  Congratulations to KWAM The Mighty 990 on this historic milestone.
