From the Chairman

On behalf of the entire Jackson County Democratic Committee, welcome to our annual

Truman Days celebration in recognition of President Harry Truman. This is one of the largest

gatherings of Democrats in our great state of Missouri and this is truly a jubilant year with sev-

eral offices held by our fellow Democrats.

As you can see this evening that many tables are filled with

our loyal friends in labor and we look forward to continuing those

great friendships. I would like to extend a special honor to our pre-

senting sponsor for these evenings events; the International Broth-

erhood of Electrical Workers Unions. Working people through the

leadership of organized labor have remained the backbone of the

Democratic Party.

Our Truman Days events are representative of the efforts of

many committee people; I hope you will join me in thanking our

co-chairs: Susan Dougherty (breakfast), Sandy Querry (banquet),

Cathy Spainhower (registration) and Vicki Tarpley (event booklet).

Including several that made up the Truman Days Event committee: Executive Director, Jessica

Podhola, Bonnaye Mims, Dutch Newman, Sandy Hartwell, Alfred Jordan, DeAun Young, Judy

Briggs, Alta Stephens, Judy Morgan, Chere Chaney, Elmer Taylor, Roosevelt Sculark and Tom

Wyrsch.

Finally, we would like a special thank you to go to Congressman Emanuel Cleaver and

DNC Member Sandy Querry for assisting the committee in getting such a terrific keynote

speaker for tonight, Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, 20th

District of Florida.Thank you for sharing your evening with us and for your support of our Jackson County De-

mocratic Committee.

Gala SpeakerFor more than seventeen years,

Debbie Wasserman Schultz hasdedicated her public life to workingon behalf of the people of South

Florida. On January 4, 2005, she

was sworn in as a member of the

United States House of Representa-tives.

Rep. Wasserman Schultz representsFlorida's 20th Congressional dis-

trict, which encompasses parts of

Florida as far north as Fort Lauder-dale, and as far south as Miami

Beach. Before joining the U.S.

Congress, she was first a Represen-tative and later a Senator in the

Florida State legislature.

Rep. Wasserman Schultz serves onthe House Committee on Appro-

priations. She serves as a

Cardinal, chairing the Legislative

Branch subcommittee. She also

serves on the House Judiciary Com-mittee, which handles issue ranging

from terrorism to protection of civilliberties, Chief Deputy Whip, Sen-

ior Whip, the only freshman chosen

to serve on the Whip team.

Rep. Wasserman Schultz is a per-

son respected by her colleagues for

her tenacity and her hard work onmany issues. Her first term was

marked with remarkable success fora freshman member then serving inthe minority.

A fighter for South Florida fami-lies, Rep. Wasserman Schultz has

worked hard to protect children.

Some of her accomplishments in

the field include the passage of thePROTECT Our Children Act,

which creates the largest law en-

forcement effort ever formed for

the protection of children (H.R.3845), and, the passage the VirginiaGraeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety

Act (H.R. 1721) to combat child-

hood drowning.

Rep. Wasserman Schultz, the first

Jewish Congresswoman ever

elected from Florida, introduced aresolution, which passed the House

of Representatives and called on the

President to declare a JewishAmerican Heritage Month. The

President subsequently did so, with

the inaugural month in May, 2006.

In March 2009, after she announced

her own battle with breast cancer,Rep. Wasserman Schultz intro-

duced the Education and Aware-

ness Requires Learning Young Act,or EARLY Act (H.R. 1740), a piece

of legislation that directs the Cen-

ters for Disease Control and Pre-vention to develop and implement a

national education campaign about

the threat breast cancer poses to all

young women, and the particularheightened risks of certain ethnic,

cultural and racial groups.

Rep. Wasserman Schultz was bornin Long Island, NY and received

her Bachelors and Masters de-

grees from University of Florida.She and her husband Steve live in

Weston, Florida with their three

children.

All of this experience serves to en-

hance her commitment to lowerhealth care costs, improve the qual-

ity of education, protect Social Se-

curity and Medicare, and provide a

sensible homeland security plan to

protect our citizens from the ongo-ing threat of terror. She continues to

fight to ensure that our first re-sponders, our local police and fire-

fighters, have the tools they need to

do their jobs. And she continues totake up the fight to give our troops

the equipment and compensation

they deserve.

Debbie Wasserman Schultz was

born in 1966 on Long Island, NY.She attended the University of Flor-ida and graduated with a Bachelors

Degree in Political Science in 1988

and with a Masters Degree in1990. She has been married to

Steve Schultz for 17 years and to-

gether they have three children. TheCongresswoman is proud to call

South Florida home where she re-

sides with her family in Weston.
