Pelosi Statement on the Passing of C. Delores Tucker
“C. Delores Tucker was a tenacious fighter for civil rights and women everywhere. Whether in founding the National Congress of Black Women, or campaigning against violent and obscene song lyrics, she was a stalwart voice for justice. She leaves us with a legacy to continue to fight for righteousness and root out inequality wherever it exists.
“It has been an honor for me to work with Ms. Tucker over the years. I proudly display in my office the Bethune-DuBois award she gave me three years ago. Her leadership will be sorely missed.
“It is with sadness and respect that I extend deepest condolences to Ms. Tucker’s family, friends, and to all those she touched over the course of her extraordinary life. I hope her family finds comfort in knowing that so many people are praying for them at this sad time.”
“ Democrats are united in presenting a New Direction for America, one that will make our nation as strong as its people, one that brings opportunity, security, and prosperity to all Americans. ”
Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi
