            AUTOMOTIVE PARTS HEADQUARTERS 100TH ANNIVERSARY

  (Mr. EMMER asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute.)
  Mr. EMMER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Automotive Parts 
Headquarters in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on 100 years of dedicated service 
to their customers and their community.
  Owning and operating a business is never easy, and reaching this 
milestone is an important testament to the hardworking people they 
employ and the services they offer.
  Founded in 1920, Automotive Parts Headquarters outgrew their first 
shop in Minneapolis. Today, they have 125 corporate stores and 36 
independent locations across the Midwest.
  Automotive Parts Headquarters has stayed true to its roots. In fact, 
President and CEO Corey Bartlett is the third generation of his family 
to be involved in the business.
  It was an honor to visit Automotive Parts Headquarters recently and 
learn about the great work they do in the St. Cloud area.
  Automotive Parts Headquarters not only supplies parts to repair 
shops, the company builds partnerships with their customers to help 
them grow.
  Automotive Parts Headquarters also supports the communities where 
they operate, contributing to charities like the American Cancer 
Society, Toys for Tots, and WACOSA.
  Mr. Speaker, I thank Automotive Parts Headquarters for their 
continued service to our communities and congratulate them for 100 
years of incredible service in Minnesota.
