Help me send Kossack Kongrats to Rep. Linda Sanchez, who is expecting the patter of little feet:
WASHINGTON (AP) Democratic Congresswoman Linda Sanchez of Southern California is pregnant with her first child.
Her communications director says that Sanchez, who is 39, is due May 21st and is unofficially engaged to her boyfriend of a year-and-a-half, a consultant named Jim Sullivan.
As a consistent friend to labor, the Hispanic community, and education, Rep. Sanchez has a solid reputation as a liberal and is noted for her opposition to Bush's shameful suspension of prevailing wage requirements after Hurricane Katrina, which he eventually backed down from.
I wish Representative Sanchez and her family health and happiness as she welcomes a new Democrat to the ranks next spring.
