 Texas Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas has died. The long-serving, often outspoken Democrat was diagnosed just last month with pancreatic cancer, after which she wrote in a statement, in part, my adult life has been defined by my faith in God, my love for humanity, and my commitment to public service. She had represented her Houston-based district since 1995, and she served in a high-profile House Judiciary Committee. This is SRN News.
