                       RECOGNIZING PETE McCLYMONT

  The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentleman from 
Nebraska (Mr. Smith) for 5 minutes.
  Mr. SMITH of Nebraska. Mr. Speaker, today, I rise to recognize Third 
District native Pete McClymont for his contributions to the Nebraska 
beef industry.
  Pete was raised on a farm and ranching operation near Holdrege, 
Nebraska, and has maintained a lifelong commitment to growing the 
Nebraska cattle business and advancing the State as a leader in 
agriculture.
  With steadfast excellence, Pete has fostered growth in numerous 
sectors of agribusiness in Nebraska and recently announced his 
retirement after 25 years of service in several roles with the Nebraska 
Cattlemen, including the last 10 as the organization's executive vice 
president.
  Nebraska's first nickname was ``The Beef State,'' and Pete's list of 
accomplishments in maintaining that reputation is long. Despite having 
to navigate the difficult conditions of disasters, drought, and market 
challenges, Nebraska's beef industry is better for his leadership, and 
we continue to be grateful for his outstanding service.
