Sept. 11, 2020 Wilson on Anniversary of September 11 Attacks Rep. Joe Wilson
Aug. 28, 2020 Tweet - "65 years ago, Emmett Till was lynched by two white men. Today, we are still witnessing the modern-day lynching of Black men and women by police in this country. Until we put an end to police brutality and modern-day lynching, we will never have liberty and justice for all." Rep. Jim Clyburn
Aug. 26, 2020 Tweet - "100 years ago women got the right to vote. As we commemorate the 19th amendment, we must recognize that we have a long way to go before women are truly equal in this country. Women must have access to equal pay, equal opportunities, and equal treatment. #WomensEqualityDay" Rep. Jim Clyburn
Aug. 18, 2020 Tweet - "100 years ago the #19thAmendment was ratified empowering women to vote. However, Black people were blocked from exercising that right until 1965 & voting rights are still being infringed by voter suppression tactics.

Aug. 6, 2020 Tweet - "John Lewis urged us to use our right to vote as the most powerful, nonviolent tool we have in this democratic society.

Aug. 4, 2020 Tweet - "Every time I think of voting, I think of John Lewis. John wanted to pass HR 4, which is now the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Act. We passed it in the House. I hope the Senate will do more than give lip service to John & by their deeds pass the bill." Rep. Jim Clyburn
