WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH
(Mrs. BEATTY asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute.)
Mrs. BEATTY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today in honor of March being
Women's History Month. I rise today to say thank you for all the
services for the women in the Third Congressional District and to the
102 women who serve in the 113th Congress in the House and the Senate.
I rise because we know when women succeed, America succeeds. I ask
you to join me in making 2014 a year of action by having equal pay for
equal work, providing affordable child care and access to health care.
This afternoon, I am honored to join Swin Cash, a two-time Olympic
gold medalist, as we initiate the Let's Move! initiative in honor of
the First Lady's Let's Move! So to America, I say let's do this thing
in honor of women.
