         HONORING LEADERS OF PLANNED PARENTHOOD EASTERN REGION

                                 ______
                                 

                          HON. JERROLD NADLER

                              of new york

                  in the house of representatives

                         Monday, March 24, 2003

  Mr. NADLER. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to Susan 
Herrmann, Kealy Salomon, Perry Colwell, Caroline Hoen, Carol Massey, 
Freddie Hodges, Kay Scott, Jamie Ann Sabino and Nancy Williams, who 
have all served ably as leaders of Planned Parenthood Eastern Region.
  As members of the Eastern Region Executive Committee, they have 
volunteered innumerable hours, their energy and passion toward engaging 
the volunteers and affiliate staff of the Eastern Region with Planned 
Parenthood's mission. Planned Parenthood's regional councils represent 
a critical component of Planned Parenthood's political grassroots in 
the battle to protect and expand Planned Parenthood's mission.
  With Planned Parenthood facing it's most difficult hour, withstanding 
constant attacks from the Radical Right, the Eastern Region Council 
will play a critical role in support and inspiring the staff and 
volunteers of the Region.
  Mr. Speaker, on behalf of the Planned Parenthood Federation, I extend 
my deep appreciation and admiration to Judy Tabb, Susan Herrmann, Kealy 
Salomon, Perry Colwell, Caroline Hoen, Carol Massey, Freddie Hodges, 
Kay Scott, Jamie Ann Sabino and Nancy Williams for their leadership in 
protecting the reproductive rights of all.
