  Mr. BRADY of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to honor the 
accomplishments of Ms. Dolores M. Bojazi. A graduate of Temple Law 
School, Ms. Bojazi began her career working to aid battered women and 
union workers, and she continues to advocate for important causes in 
her career as an attorney.
  Ms. Bojazi is an accomplished attorney who began her career as an 
advocacy coordinator at Women Against Abuse. While there, she trained 
the Philadelphia Police Force in legal response procedure and proposed 
an appeal procedure for emergency protection orders, which was adopted 
into law in 1988. She continued her advocacy work as a union organizer 
for the United Auto Workers, where she represented the union at the 
National Labor Relations Board. Ms. Bojazi then began working as a 
Public Defender in the Philadelphia Defender Association, and later 
worked in the Burlington and Camden Public Defenders Office. She has 
also worked at Freedman and Lorry and Mattleman, Weinroth, and Miller. 
Ms. Bojazi currently practices law in her own office where she focuses 
on criminal and family law. Ms. Bojazi will be honored by the Marian 
Anderson Historical Society on May 31, 2014.
  I ask that you and my other distinguished colleagues join me in 
honoring Ms. Bojazi for her countless years of dedication to improving 
the lives of those in Pennsylvania's First District. She has and 
continues to work tirelessly in her advocacy to help others in 
Philadelphia.
