Black and brown people have been underrepresented in government for too long. Yesterday, President Joe Biden nominated the first African American woman to sit on the Supreme Court.
Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson’s nomination is a historic victory for leaders of color. Judge Jackson’s voice on the court, the diversity of experience, and expertise that she brings will be critical to protecting and securing the right to control our bodies, our lives, and our futures for generations to come. This momentum must continue.
Equal representation means having all voices heard, and we need leaders like Shontel Brown to help us get there. As we near the end of February, and edge closer to early voting, we must do everything we can to defend Shontel Brown.
As a Cuyahoga County Council member and Chairwoman of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, Shontel Brown has spent the last decade serving the people of Ohio and building coalitions. Now, as the Congresswoman for Ohio’s 11th District, she will fight for affordable quality health care, jobs that pay fair wages, a strong public education system, and equity and justice for all. Will you join her and be the change we need?
