"There's a reason that this radical SCOTUS majority is going after voting rights. EVERYTHING that we care about in this country ties back to voting rights. We have so much work to do. The Senate can start by ending the filibuster & passing the Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act." on June 27Read on Twitter
"Just over 9 years ago, the Supreme Court's conservative majority decided Shelby v. Holder in favor of state and local governments that wanted more power to suppress the vote and discriminate against Black voters.This year, they're attacking the rest of the Voting Rights Act." on June 27Read on Twitter
"In Congress, I am questioned and doubted for no other reason than being a Black woman at work. In a different job, I could be fired just for wearing my hair in braids.That's why I co-sponsor the #CROWNAct to end hair discrimination & be clear that ALL hair is professional hair." on June 27Read on Twitter
