January 6th, 2021 was one of the darkest days in our nation’s history. Three years later, it’s still difficult to process the attack on our Capitol and on our democracy itself.
As we approach the 2024 elections, we cannot forget the day the lives of Congress members and our staff, Capitol Police, administrative and custodial staff, cafeteria workers, and many others were put in danger — leading to the tragic loss of life for several people.
The insurrection was an abhorrent event, but the threat of extremism exists throughout our country, and we must act to protect our democracy and those who serve it every day.
It’s on all of us to stand unwavering in our demands to protect American democracy from present and future threats.
