Next on Congress's Agenda: America!
The new Congress is proving it's really tuned in – at 8 p.m. Thursdays on ABC. In session Wednesday, Rep. Hilda L. Solis (D-Calif.) congratulated Ugly Betty's America Ferrera's for her best actress Golden Globe, and spoke at length about the positive social impact of the actress's role. "Through her work, Ms. Ferrera is breaking down barriers for Latinos in prime-time television," Solis said. "I commend America and everyone involved in Ugly Bettyfor helping to break down stereotypes and provide a role model for young Latinas."
