    Nomination for United States District Court Judges
    November 18, 1993

        The President today nominated two U.S. district court judges for
    Louisiana: Tucker Melancon for the Western District, and Helen
    ``Ginger'' Berrigan for the Eastern District.
        ``I have pledged to the American people that I would appoint Federal
    judges committed to public service,'' said the President. ``In Tucker
    Melancon and Ginger Berrigan, the people of Louisiana will have just
    that.''
