Vera Bea Rison (Shelby, Misisipi; 14 de febrero de 1939-Mount Morris, Michigan, 31 de agosto de 2015) fue un miembro demócrata de la Cámara de Representantes de Míchigan desde 1997 hasta 2002. (es) Vera Bea Rison (February 14, 1939 – August 31, 2015) was a Democratic member of the Michigan House of Representatives from 1997 through 2002. Born in Shelby, Mississippi, Rison received her high school diploma from the Mott Adult Night School. She worked at Genesee Memorial Hospital from 1969–1990, and was elected to the Genesee County Board of Commissioners in 1986, serving for ten years. Considered one of the Flint area's most fervent champions, Rison was also director of human resources at the Amy Jo Manor housing complex, a member of the Genesee County Community Mental Health board, the Genesee County Substance Abuse Services board, and the Jobs Central Workforce Development board. In 1994, she received the A. Philip Randolph Institute Civil Rights Human Rights Award. For her dedication, the Vera B. Rison Women's Shelter of Hope and Vera Rison Library were named in her honor. Rison became the first House member in recent memory to forgo any committee assignments when she did so in the 1999–2000 session. Due to diabetes and high blood pressure, Rison suffered from blindness, and later in life she was forced to largely leave the political scene. Rison died August 31, 2015, at her home in Mt. Morris, Michigan. (en) |
