                      REMEMBERING JACKIE WALORSKI

  Mr. YOUNG. Mr. President, I come to the floor this evening, first, 
wanting to take a moment to join Senator Braun in remembering a good 
friend to each of us, our colleague Congresswoman Jackie Walorski. She 
tragically passed away in a horrible car accident earlier today.
  I, for one, am truly devastated. I know that Jackie loved the State 
of Indiana. She loved the Hoosiers throughout the State. She had an 
incredible sense of humor, incredibly smart, and was so talented in 
many ways. And she will be missed.
  I join countless Hoosiers, and I know that Senator Braun is, in 
praying for her husband Dean, for her entire family, and for all those 
who came to love and respect Jackie.
  I know that so many throughout the State are mourning her passing 
this evening, and so many will have important things to say about their 
interaction with her and how fond they were of her.
  It also should be said that two other Hoosiers passed in this 
horrible accident, members of her dedicated staff: Emma Thomson and 
Zach Potts. We pray for all of them.
