Tubbs Jones Suffers Aneurysm, Conflicting Reports

Congresswoman Stephanie Tubbs Jones suffered a brain aneurysm yesterday. Sources reported to the Plain Dealer that Tubbs Jones was removed from life support at 12:19 p.m, but CNN reports that, while earlier reports said that she had died, she was still alive with limited brain function, according to the chief of staff at Huron Hospital.

Tubbs Jones is the first African-American woman to represent Ohio in Congress. She is also a superdelegate and was scheduled to attend the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
