                      RECOGNIZING MAKE-A-WISH IOWA

  Mr. GRASSLEY. Mr. President, last Saturday marked an incredible 
milestone for Make-a-Wish Iowa. At that event in Dubuque, this 
organization granted its 4,000th wish to Michael, age 15, from Oelwein, 
IA. He received a livestock trailer for transporting his show cattle.
  Now, 4,000 wishes is an amazing achievement for Make-a-Wish, which is 
dedicated to bringing joy to critically ill young people in Iowa. The 
wishes they grant make such an impact on the lives of these children.
  I congratulate Make-a-Wish Iowa and their many volunteers for their 
accomplishments. I know they will continue to spread joy, kindness, and 
compassion for years to come.
  I yield the floor.
