Joe Biden

Mr. President, in over 20 years in the Senate I do not think I have done this twice, but I will say, to be safe, I do not think I have done it a half dozen times. I would like to read into the Record a letter that I received yesterday from a woman who is graduating from high school in my State, a woman I have never met. Her name is Mrs. Judi Robinson. She lives in old New Castle, DE, which is a community over 350 years old, a beautiful place, in a place called Penn Acres. I would like to read it, if I may.

Joe Biden

Mr. President, the reason I read that into the Record is I do not think we should lose sight of the fact that there are thousands and thousands and thousands of women and men like Judi Robinson who are going back to try to get the basic education that for whatever reasons they did not get when they were children. I think our reluctance to put as much emphasis on the educational needs in this country and the Federal responsibility to participate in that is a serious mistake. I am sure all of my colleagues, and I know the Senator in the chair, the Senator from Colorado, like everyone else in here, shares a sense of pride when there is someone in their State like Judi Robinson who goes through that effort.

Joe Biden

I remember discussing with my friend from Colorado how his mother went back and her significant educational accomplishments and what she has done. I just thought it worthwhile to let people know that there are a lot of people like Judi Robinson still fighting hard, who still have faith in this operation, still have faith in the system, and still think they can better themselves through education.
