                            HON. DAVID YOUNG

                                of iowa

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 18, 2017

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize and 
congratulate Stephanie Carlson for being named the 2017 Emerging Iowa 
Leader by the Iowa State University College of Agriculture and Life 
Sciences.
  The Emerging Iowa Leader Award recognizes alumni from the College who 
have taken leadership roles in advocating for and bettering agriculture 
and life sciences in Iowa. Stephanie is the producer outreach and 
federal policy director for the Iowa Pork Producers Association, where 
she interacts with people from industry leaders to the local producer. 
Wendy Wintersteen, the endowed dean of the College of Agriculture and 
Life Sciences, noted the ``positive impact'' Stephanie has also had on 
the college itself, ``from sharing her expertise with classes and 
student organizations, to advocating and raising awareness for college 
priorities through the Curtiss League and the Grow Iowa Agriculture 
organization.''
  Mr. Speaker, I congratulate Stephanie Carlson on her recognition as 
the 2017 Emerging Iowa Leader, and I ask that my colleagues in the 
United States House of Representatives join me in congratulating 
Stephanie on her outstanding accomplishment.

                          ____________________
