President Bush Congratulates Deborah Pryce on Congressional Career
Throughout her Congressional career, Deborah Pryce has championed
issues that matter to the families of Central Ohio. Her commitment to
reducing taxes, strengthening our national defense, and reforming our
health care system has helped improve the lives of her constituents
and made America a more hopeful Nation. She has also earned national
recognition as a persuasive advocate on behalf of women and children.
Based on her strong legislative record and consensus-building skills,
Deb’s colleagues selected her to lead the House Republican Conference
– the highest leadership post ever held by a Republican woman. She
will be missed when she departs the Congress. -
