  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to join the 
Montgomery, Alabama Transportation Coalition in recognizing the heroes 
of the 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott.
  On December 4, 2003, the Coalition will hold its annual awards 
dinner, and the theme for this year's banquet is ``Reclaiming the 
Dream.'' They have chosen this occasion to honor the heroes of the 
Montgomery Bus Boycott. These heroes are former Pastor Robert Graetz, 
Mrs. Inez Jessie Baskin, Mrs. Johnnie Carr, Mrs. Daisy Childrey, Mrs. 
Thelma Glass, Mrs. Hazel Gregory, Mrs. Vera Harris, Mr. Bobby Jackson, 
Mrs. Zecozy Williams, and posthumously, Mrs. Aurelia Browder, Mrs. 
Virginia Durr and Mr. Eddie Posey.
