MEMORANDUM

Posted: January 22, 2013 11:43 AM
From: Senator LeAnna M. Washington
To: All Senate members
Subject: Resolution - Rosa Parks 100th Birthday
 
In the near future, we plan on introducing a resolution commemorating Rosa Parks 100th birthday and recognizing her contributions to our country.

On December 1, 1955, in Montgomery, Alabama, Rosa Parks famously refused to give up her seat to a white man. Her brave act of civil disobedience led to a 382 day boycott of the bus system, and sparked the Civil Rights Movement.

Rosa Parks spent her life fighting for equality and has been called the “mother of the freedom movement.”

Please join me in sponsoring this worthy resolution. If you have any questions, please contact my office at 7-1427.


Introduced as SR18
