It is hard to put into words our thoughts on the unjustified killing of #TyreNicols . Injustice, hatred, discrimination and violence must end. We must change. Our energy and prayers are with Tyre’s loved ones and with all those that have felt the pain of a loss.

[The Martin Luther King, Jr. Center @TheKingCenter]

No person, no family, no community, no people should be made to suffer such trauma. #TyreNichols

[Ashlar Government Relations @AshlarGR]

On #MLKDay we honor the life and achievements of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. May we reflect on his perseverance, courage, resilience, and commit to serving our communities. Together, we can make our world a kinder, more inclusive place. #bethechange #ashlargr #dayofservice

While we're working in Annapolis every day, we know not everyone can. We stand for accessibility, availability, & equality. We support allowing those who cannot testify in person to testify virtually. Other states figured out hybrid models, we can too. https://t.co/jkjkUn71sP
