stephanie tubbs jones...our prayers are with you!

U.S. Representative Stephanie Tubbs Jones. Jones, the first black woman to represent Ohio in Congress, was hospitalized Wednesday after suffering an aneurysm. The news conference indicates that she is in critical condition, although CNN had earlier reported that the Congresswoman had passed away. I urge all Sojourners to keep Congresswoman Jones in our thoughts and prayers.

First elected in 1998, Tubbs Jones was one of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's biggest boosters during the primaries. She backed Barack Obama in June and is a superdelegate at next week's Democratic National Convention in Denver.

Tubbs Jones, who represents the heavily Democratic 11th District, chairs the ethics committee in the House. She was also the first black woman to serve on the powerful Ways and Means Committee.

Speak the Truth!

Obliged to you for hearing me, and now old SjP ain't got nothing more to say.
