  Mr. ANDREWS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Eugene Chin Yu, 
the 24th president of the Federation of Korean Associations. Mr. Yu has 
dedicated his time and energy to representing Korean Americans on the 
local, regional, and national level for his entire adult life.
  Starting as a young man, Mr. Yu has steadily risen in prominence as 
he championed the causes of his fellow Korean Americans. As president 
of the Federation of Korean Associations, Mr. Yu continues his diligent 
work ensuring the success of Korean culture in America.
  Mr. Yu also serves the greater community as a leader and a role 
model. Having served in the United States Army, Mr. Yu embodies the 
virtue of defending the freedom of our great nation. As a former 
Georgia State Trooper, Mr. Yu was committed to protecting the safety of 
his community. And as a successful business owner, Mr. Yu shows us that 
with hard work and dedication, anything is achievable in America.
  Mr. Speaker, Eugene Chin Yu's legacy as a community leader is well 
recognized and deserving of our honor. I join the Korean American 
community of Southern New Jersey in honoring Mr. Yu and his many great 
accomplishments.
