I have spent my life fighting for Black boys, and these numbers should shake our nation to its core. We cannot celebrate our boys while abandoning them in crisis. This public health emergency demands culturally competent care, trusted mentors, safe spaces, and real investment

Behind the Smithsonian’s walls, the truth of America stands unafraid. Every voice, every story, and every hard-won chapter reminds us that a nation cannot move forward by hiding what it has survived. I will fight to ensure that truth is never dimmed, distorted, or denied.

Six years ago today, America lost a civil rights giant, but John Lewis’s spirit still marches beside us. He bled for our democracy, stood unshaken in the face of hatred, and showed generations that courage can change the course of history. We honor him not with words alone, but

When I first got to Congress, WRDA lacked consistency, so I brought Democrats and Republicans together to restore it. Today in committee, I stood on that record of leadership, fighting for Florida’s ports, protecting the Everglades, and building stronger, more resilient

The National Museum of African American History and Culture is more than a museum. It is a promise that the sacrifices, struggles, and triumphs of Black Americans will never be forgotten. We owe future generations the truth, not a history rewritten for political convenience.

Langston Hughes declared, "I, too, sing America." Today, that poem lives on through every story preserved and every artifact protected. The American story is not complete unless every chapter is remembered.

The Civil Rights Act was not handed to us. It was earned through the courage, sacrifice, and determination of those who refused to accept injustice. Preserving Black history means preserving the truth. Black history is American history, and we must protect it for generations to
