On December 5th:

Tonight, Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) hosted The Power of One: Ohio’s 20th Annual Statewide Tribute to Rosa Parks at Vitria on the Square, marking the 20th anniversary of Ohio becoming the first state in the nation to designate December 1st as Rosa Parks Day.

e serving in the Ohio House of Representatives, Beatty wrote the legislation establishing Rosa Parks Day in Ohio.



The legislation passed unanimously during the 50th anniversary of Parks’ historic refusal to give up her seat on a Montgomery bus, an act that sparked the 381-day Montgomery Bus Boycott and helped launch the modern civil rights movement. Beatty served five terms in the Ohio House, where she became the first female Democratic House Leader in state history. Former Governor Bob Taft, signed the legislation into law.
