in john lewis changed the history. ultimately, their fearless efforts led to the voting rights act of 1965. the congressional gold medal is the highest civilian award presented by congress, and i can think of no better time than on the 50th anniversary to honor and recognize the civil rights leaders who sacrificed so greatly to bring equality to the voiceless across the united states. may their diligence and sacrifice and dedication to this cause stay an example to all of us as we continue to serve in this chamber and in every aspect of our lives. i yield back. >> the gentleman yields back. the gentlewoman from alabama rises. >> mr. speaker, i yield one minute. >> the gentlewoman from north carolina is recognized for one minute. mr. speaker. a bill to award a congressional gold medal to the foot soldiers and the final march from selma to montgomery which was a catalyst for the voting rights act of 1965. i'm proud to co-sponsor this bill and stand with congresswoman sewell and her delegation and one of the greatest lead

lewis, and experience through that visual on the screen what he lived in his life. it was a unique and special moment and one that i will personally treasure for a very long time. so, mr. speaker, it is to mr. lewis and all those that joined him in standing up for justice that we seek to honor with this congressional gold medal. and there is no higher honor that we as members of congress can bestow, yet it seems such a small token of gratitude compared to the magnitude of the endeavors of those who lived through those days. my daughter margaret, mr. speaker who you often hear me talk about, margaret and george, but margaret is in fourth grade, and like in a lot of states, in fourth grade in alabama you learn about alabama history. this is such an important time in her life as she learns about our state and its history and the civil rights movement is certainly an integral part very important part of our history. so she's coming with me on the pilgrimage next month, and she'll be able to meet and know first hand the people that fought to change the world. it's diffic

i want to honor the legacy of emilia boyington, john reese, john lewis and so many. but we can't honor their legacy without acknowledging that the voting rights act of 1965, major sections of it have been invalidated. we owe it to that legacy, the legacy and memories of those who fought so valiantly. that this body should once again work together to make sure that federal protections are there. because as we know progress is always elusive, old battles are new again and renewed assault on voting. now it may not be count how many jelly beans are in a jar, how many counties there are in the state of alabama, but nevertheless, we still have modern-day barriers to voting that we must overcome. i hope that we have the courage of our own convict the movie "selma" as a beginning of a national conversation about how we can continue to recommit ourselves to the ideals that were fought on that bloody sunday. i know if we combine our hearts and mind, both sides of the aisle will see it is in everyone's best interest that all americans have the right to vote. and i thank my coll

montgomery county reporter kevin lewis has been following this case from the beginning and he joins us now live with the very latest on this verdict. >> well autria i can tell you this was an extremely disturbing case for reporters. for the public and for the jury to witness first hand. you had a man, a 40-year-old man named joey poindexter who would prey on young men, liquor them up get him into his car and bring them back to his home in gaithersburg where they were extremely inebriated and assault and sodomize them. there were video taken of many of these assaults. the videos were taken in the courtroom. the jury had stunned looks on their faces. joey poindexter actually fired his defense team that had taken the case pro bono a prestigious defense team from d.c. so he ended up representing himself in this case. the judge called the decision ridiculously stupidic but he acknowledged that he couldn't stop poindexter from making that call. so in a very bizarre twist, you had the defendant here actually cross examining his victims. we spoke with two female jurors moments ago. they told u
