House reads resolution honoring Amanda Ostrom as 2025 Iowa Pork Queen

On a point of personal privilege, Representative Latham recognized the clerk and read a House resolution congratulating Amanda Ostrom for her service as the 2025 Iowa Pork Queen. The resolution, which Latham and Representative Ingalls read on the floor, notes Ostrom's background: she is from Stanhope in Hamilton County, the daughter of Jared and Janie Ostrom, grew up in a farm family involved in pork production, participated in 4-H while attending South Hamilton High School, and is attending Iowa State University majoring in agricultural business.

Latham said Ostrom served as a goodwill ambassador for the pork industry and that members should join in thanking her for that service. The record shows the resolution was read and the chamber offered congratulations; the transcript does not record a roll-call vote adopting the resolution.

The recognition was ceremonial and no legislative action, such as an appropriation or directive, was recorded alongside the reading of the resolution.
