In this July 4, 2008 photo, U.S. District Judge Janis Graham Jack administer the U.S. oath of citizenship to more than 100 area residents representing 25 countries aboard the USS Lexington. The federal judge who ruled that Texas' foster care system is unconstitutionally broken has been named The Dallas Morning News' Texan of the Year. The newspaper announced Friday, Dec. 23, 2016, that Jack was being recognized because she &quot;punctured our comfortable obliviousness to the appalling treatment&quot; being endured by the 12,000 children labeled permanent wards of the state.
