FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Today U.S. Rep. Virginia Foxx (N.C.-5) made the following remarks following Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor’s announcement that she is retiring: “Sandra Day O’Connor leaves an indelible mark on the American judicial system. As a trailblazer for American women in law, Justice O’Connor will long be remembered for not only shattering the glass ceiling, but for her commitment to serving our country. I look forward to President Bush's nomination of a new Supreme Court Justice. My hope is that he will appoint someone impartial who is willing to interpret our Constitution and not legislate from the bench.” ### |
