                     TRIBUTE TO THE LATE ROSA PARKS

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. DENNIS MOORE

                               of kansas

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, October 25, 2005

  Mr. MOORE of Kansas. Mr. Speaker, today America celebrates the life 
of Rosa Parks. Fifty years ago a brave lady said ``no,'' she would not 
go to the back of the bus and she helped end a sad chapter in American 
history. When Rosa Parks refused to move she stood tall for what 
America is about--for the dignity of every person and for human rights. 
Rosa Parks helped make us a better country. Rosa Parks made us all 
proud.
