Hello,

157 years ago, Union troops marched to Galveston, Texas to deliver the
news that Black Southerners were free from enslavement more than two years
after the Emancipation Proclamation was signed. Now we remember this day,
known as Juneteenth, in honor of Black liberation and the end of slavery.

But today, I want us to also recognize that we still have a long way to go
before all Black Americans are truly free.

The end of slavery was not the end of racial injustice. Structural and
systemic racism is real—and it’s still there. Our commitment to right
these wrongs must never waver.

We can’t let progress distract us from today’s fight against voter
suppression, mass incarceration and the racial wealth gap—all of which
disproportionately harm Black Americans.

That’s why I’m committed to continuing the fight for justice in health
care, housing and education, making sure Black Americans can get
good-paying jobs, and working to finally restore the Voting Rights Act.

Making Juneteenth a federal holiday was long overdue. And I’m proud to
have supported that legislation to recognize our history. But as we
celebrate the 157th anniversary of emancipation, let us continue the fight
for progress in order to usher in true justice and equality for all.

In solidarity,

Tim Ryan
