CONGRATULATING SCHIEFELBEIN FAMILY, MEEKER COUNTY'S 2026 FARM FAMILY OF 
                                THE YEAR

  (Mrs. Fischbach of Minnesota was recognized to address the House for 
5 minutes.)
  Mrs. FISCHBACH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate the 
Schiefelbein family on being the Meeker County 2026 Farm Family of the 
Year.
  Big Frank and Frosty began this family legacy in 1955. I had the 
honor to know them both and call many, many members of this wonderful 
family friends. It is truly a family farm with so many members of the 
family actively working on the farm. The Schiefelbein farm sells about 
500 head of cattle and calve about 1,000 registered Angus cows 
annually. They also operate a feeder calf operation where they feed 
over 30,000 calves across the U.S.
  Their outstanding production of cattle and cows across the U.S. is no 
small feat. The Schiefelbein family's dedication to their farm shows 
just how Minnesotans are feeding America.
  Once again, Mr. Speaker, I congratulate the Schiefelbein family.

Center, but his impact goes far beyond the local community. In 1993 he 
cofounded the Comprehensive Advanced Life Support Program. Today, 
nearly all of Minnesota's designated trauma hospitals rely on the CALS 
Program to train medical personnel for life-threatening emergencies.
  Dr. Carter's decades of clinical excellence, innovation, and 
educational leadership have saved countless lives and transformed 
emergency care across rural America.
  Mr. Speaker, I thank Dr. Carter for 54 years of dedicated service to 
his community.


      Celebrating Enoch Horton, Finalist for NASA'S HUNCH Program

  Mrs. FISCHBACH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to celebrate Enoch Horton, 
a rising senior at Wadena-Deer Creek High School, who recently 
represented Minnesota on the national stage.
  Enoch became his school's first finalist for the prestigious NASA 
HUNCH program. Out of thousands of students across 34 States, Enoch 
advanced to the final design reviews at the NASA Johnson Space Center 
in Houston, Texas.
  Enoch designed and presented an AI-powered satellite project aimed at 
improving orbital sustainability and expanding access to space 
research.
  Enoch's achievement is a testament to his hard work and ingenuity. He 
has proven that big ideas and groundbreaking innovation can come from 
any corner of our great Nation.
  Congratulations to Enoch on a remarkable achievement.
