                         HILLARY RODHAM CLINTON

  (Ms. McKINNEY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Ms. McKINNEY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to say thank you to Hillary 
Rodham Clinton, a woman who has become a hero and role model to 
millions of women of all ages, and colors.
  As a new Member of Congress, I know what it is like to be pigeonholed 
into stereotypes--fighting a constant struggle against how others would 
like to define me.
  Hillary, too, is one who doesn't fit stereotypes. She has said ``no'' 
to those who put upon her their own expectations of who she is. And 
instead, she has carved out her own niche with her own tools of 
intelligence and eloquence.
  Hillary is a strong, positive woman, admired by women across America. 
She is a risk taker who is not afraid to speak her mind. Hillary, I 
think you're cool. Give'em health, Hillary.
