There’s so much that makes me proud when I look back on my time in Congress. So in true ‘throwback Thursday’ fashion, I’m going to highlight some of the most important moments.

But first, can I count on you to chip in and help me keep up the important work as representative for Alabama’s Black Belt? [[link removed]]

My First Law

As the representative of America’s Civil Rights District, I work hard to ensure our history is preserved, remembered, and learned from.

As such, the first law I passed honored the ‘Four Little Girls’ who were tragically killed in the 16th Street Baptist Church bombing in 1963. This legislation bestowed Congress’s highest honor – the Congressional Gold Medal – upon Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson, and Denise McNair.

These four young girls should never have fallen victim to crimes committed against Black Americans at the height of the Civil Rights Movement. I was proud to honor their memory with this important legislation.

This horrific moment in history is one that sticks with every Alabamian, and is a reminder that we must continue the fight for equal rights.




The John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act

The late John Lewis was a giant in the Civil Rights Movement – he was also a dear friend and one of my greatest mentors.

After his passing, I carried this legislation in his honor to continue his mission to protect voting rights.

Depriving citizens of their right to vote is fundamentally un-American, and runs counter to everything that we stand for.

With Republican legislators attacking the right to vote across the country, our fight to protect and expand voting rights couldn’t be more urgent.




Public Health

I’ve been a strong supporter of President Biden’s Cancer Moonshot initiative from the point of its creation in February 2022. Cancer continues to be a leading cause of death among Americans and I firmly believe that we can be the generation that finds a cure.

I was proud to introduce the Nancy Gardner Sewell Medicare Multi-Cancer Early Detection Screening Coverage Act. This life-saving legislation – named after my late mother – would provide groundbreaking multi-cancer screenings for Medicare recipients and improve our country’s health care infrastructure.

I’m committed to doing all I can in Congress to redefine how we treat and prevent cancer so our loved ones have the best shot at beating it.




Funding Historically Black Colleges and Universities

Throughout my time in Congress, I’ve fought tooth and nail to secure funding for HBCUs and minority-serving institutions across Alabama.

Our next generation of leaders deserve an education that gives them the opportunity to excel, and I’ll always do everything I can to make that happen.

These are just a few of the memories that come to mind when I think of my proudest moments as Congresswoman for Alabama’s Seventh District.

As the only Democrat serving Alabama in Congress, I’m asking you to please make a contribution of $20 or more to my campaign for reelection. I can’t continue the fight for progress without your support. [[link removed]]
