John,

While we honor Black History Month this February and celebrate the legacies of Black leaders, trailblazers, and activists who have made immeasurable contributions to our country, that’s not where the story ends.

Our country can’t truly heal until we come to terms with our truth as a nation and address the horrific injustices of our past. We won’t address these injustices without bold action to not only rectify the damages of systemic racism through reparations, but also by uncovering the truth behind its origins so we can heal.

That’s why I’m fighting alongside Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee to pass H.R. 40 — a bill to establish a Commission on Truth, Racial Healing, and Transformation.

We’ve witnessed systemic abuse and white supremacy from the founding of this country to this very day. It’s time to usher in a moment of truth — but I’ll need your help to raise awareness and make a difference.

Restorative justice cannot wait any longer. If you agree, sign on to my petition urging my colleagues in Congress to pass H.R. 40 to address historic injustices. [[link removed]]

PASS H.R. 40 [[link removed]]

Black history is American history. Thank you for standing alongside me as we fight to ensure we properly address the injustices of our past, so that we may build a more equitable future.

In solidarity,

Barbara Lee
