Equality is giving everyone the same opportunity. Equity? Equity is acknowledging that not everybody starts at the same place.

You have to see it to believe it.

I want to join Representative Tenney in applauding President Biden's proposed budget for including a permanent extension of New Market Tax Credits.

It is my belief that our federal budget must present opportunities for all Americans to achieve economic prosperity.

Providing oversight over federal election administration and ensuring every American has free and equitable access to the ballot is vital to our democracy.

The violent struggle for voting rights and equal access to the ballot box is not one of a distant past.

Obviously, I think that my bill, the Voting Rights Advancement Act, named after John Lewis, is the right vehicle to do that.

I look forward to working with you, Chair Lee, in not only addressing violence at the polls, voter intimidation...

I think it's important to note that there is no federal oversight of states.

The Supreme Court continues to dismantle the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

It does not make their barriers fair, and it certainly does not justify or validate their existence.

We should applaud increases in voter turnout, not respond to them with new restrictions to voting.
