Folks,
In case you missed it, Gerry made headlines recently when he called for renaming the FBI headquarters.
J. Edgar Hoover was a racist, a homophobe and a bigot. He went after Black leaders during the civil rights movement and abused his power to target his political enemies. Like Gerry said, he’s not a role model for any time -- especially not this one.
Gerry introduced legislation that would form a commission to review the name and recommend a new name for the FBI headquarters, and we want to hear what your suggestions are for a new name.
Who do you think the FBI headquarters should be named after?
Thanks for sharing your ideas!
