         ELECTION OF AFRICAN AMERICAN WOMEN TO MUNICIPAL COURT

  (Mrs. JONES of Ohio asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Mrs. JONES of Ohio. Mr. Speaker, on election day Tuesday in the city 
of Cleveland, Ohio, the voters of the city of Cleveland elected four 
smart, intelligent, good-looking African American women to the 
municipal court: Emanuella Groves, reelected; Lauren Moore, elected for 
the first time; Anita Lassiter May, elected for the first time; and 
Pauline Tarver, elected for the first time.
  We are so excited about the opportunity for these young women to 
serve and provide justice to the people of the city of Cleveland. I 
join with the voters of the city of Cleveland in congratulating these 
fine young women who will serve well as Cleveland municipal court 
judges.
