I thank the gentlelady from New York. Thank you, again, for challenging us to take on the responsibility to end racial segregation. Your words were so eloquent, and it really is a responsibility that each and every one of us must take hold on and take heed to in order to accomplish this. It is not going to be done unless we do it ourselves. Thank you. Mr. Speaker, I yield to the gentlewoman from Ohio (Mrs. Beatty), who I am honored to serve with in the freshman class. I am so inspired by her leadership, and she is such a dynamic spokesperson on so many important issues before this body. She truly is a committed public servant.
