Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones, a Democratic representative from Ohio, spent her time in Congress championing wealth building and economic development, access and delivery of health care and quality education for all. Rep. Tubbs Jones passed away from a brain hemorrhage on August 19, and her gracious spirit and outstanding lawmaking will be missed.
A member of the House Ways and Means Committee and chair of the Ethics Committee, Rep. Tubbs Jones co-sponsored the Child Abuse Protection and Enforcement Act in 2000 and supported hundreds of other pieces of legislation on progressive causes. This is a profound loss of a strong advocate for civil liberties, women's rights, equality and reproductive rights.
