Houston, Texas — President George Bush will present the George Bush Medal to six individuals, two posthumously, who have distinguished themselves in the movement for equal rights and opportunity for people with disabilities worldwide during a February 24 gala luncheon in Houston. "Lighting The Way," the theme of the luncheon, recognizes the inspired leadership of the six individuals being honored.
