Everyone has the right to be heard at the ballot boxes throughout this country. We criticize other countries for not protecting the right to vote. The US Senate must pass without delay #JohnLewisVotingRightsAct and #FreedomToVoteAct

The world has lost another gentle giant and great warrior for justice. May we continue to be inspired by his example of servant leadership!

Archbishop Desmond Tutu was a mentor, a friend, and a moral compass for me and so many others. A universal spirit, Archbishop Tutu was grounded in the struggle for liberation and justice in his own country, but also concerned with injustice everywhere.

Although justice was finally served in the Arbery case, we must continue our efforts for change and remain mindful that as a country we still have a ways to go before we have "liberty and justice for all."

[Rep. Hank Johnson @RepHankJohnson]

Justice was served by a South Georgia jury, which found that #AhmaudArbery was murdered for running while Black.

I pray Ahmaud’s family and friends find comfort today. This verdict speaks also to the direction where Georgia is headed. Forward, not back.

A son of the City of Lithonia who believed in public service. May he rest in peace.

The claims of "reverse" discrimination cannot be allowed to be an obstacle to the legitimate claims of Black and other socially disadvantaged farmers to receive debt relief under the American Rescue Plan.
