Rep. Wasserman Schultz Statement on Resignation of

Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor

 

July 1, 2005

(Washington, DC)  --   "Justice O'Connor served as a pioneer for women in America, inspiring thousands of young women throughout the country to pursue their dreams.

 

Her record of pragmatism and studied reflection as a Justice has mirrored the views of the nation and honored the intent of the framers of the Constitution.  As a nation, we can only hope that President Bush nominates a candidate of equal stature."
