Black lives matter.
Black futures matter.
George Floyd, Breona Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery's lives mattered.
We need to say their names, along with the names of the countless Black people who have been killed as a result of unnecessary and unlawful police violence. We must do more, however, then simply say their names.
We must also work towards demilitarizing law enforcement agencies that unjustly target Black people, Indigenous people, and people of color. That's why I proudly stand in support of the resolution presented by Rep. Ayanna Pressley, Rep. Ilhan Omar, Rep. Karen Bass, and Rep. Barbara Lee to condemn police brutality and call for substantive reforms.
Not only does this comprehensive resolution condemn police brutality, racial profiling, and excessive use of force, it also calls for the adoption of reforms and policies on all levels of government to end these injustices.
By following the link below, you can contact your Representative to urge them to co-sponsor this crucial piece of legislation>>
Now is the time for Congress to act. We must take concrete steps that will not only protect Black lives, but will also hold law enforcement officials accountable for their actions going forward.
If your Congressperson has already co-signed, please consider making a contribution to the Black Lives Matter Action Fund. Black Lives Matter is an organization at the forefront of the movement protesting police brutality and acts of violence against the Black community.
