By Megan Ziegler
Ginsburg died of complications from metastatic pancreatic cancer, the court said.
The Democratic Women’s Caucus introduced a bill to honor the legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg with a monument in the U.S. Capitol Complex.
The introduction of the bills by both congressional chambers recognizes Ginsburg at the start of Women’s History Month. Ginsburg died at the age of 87 in September from pancreatic cancer.
The House bill sponsored by Democratic Women’s Caucus co-Chair Rep. Lois Frankel of Florida, along with Reps. Jackie Speier California, Brenda Lawrence of Michigan, Veronica Escobar of Texas and Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi of Illinois, was introduced last week and mirrors the Senate s companion bill, which was introduced by Sen. Amy Klobuchar.
