  Mr. OLSON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Jordan Cheek of 
Needville, TX, for winning the 2016 Reserve World Championship Youth 
Title in the American Quarter Horse Association's Versatility Ranch 
Horse World show.
  The show took place at the Houston Livestock & Rodeo, where Jordan 
and her horse, Irish Cowboy, competed in ranch riding, ranch trail, 
reining, cutting, conformation halter, and working cow work. Jordan has 
been riding horses since the age of three and showing since she was 
eight. She competes in equestrian drill team, halter, English 
performance, western performance, reining, and speed events. Eight 
years ago, she also began judging horse competitions. After graduating 
from Needville High School, Jordan plans to pursue a nursing program at 
Texas Tech University.
  On behalf of the Twenty-Second Congressional District of Texas, 
congratulations again to Jordan for winning the 2016 Reserve World 
Championship Youth Title. We are proud of her hard work and look 
forward to her future success.
