On the recordNovember 12, 2003
I have heard that the Senate minority leader called Priscilla Owen unqualified. Yet I understand Justice Owen attended Baylor University and Baylor University Law School, graduating cum laude from both institutions. I understand that she finished third in her law school class and earned the highest score on the Texas bar exam. And she accomplished these remarkable achievements at a time when women were a distinct minority in the legal profession. Isn't it true that 15 past presidents of the Texas State bar, both Democrats and Republicans who hold a variety of views on important legal and social issues, agree that Justice Owen is an outstanding nominee and should be confirmed as a Federal judge?
