Mark Takano: “One veteran's suicide is one too many.”

The work of renewing and perfecting the idea of America does not happen on its own.

We are here because the work that began 63 years ago is unfinished.

We fight for an America where nobody feels that they have to carry a passport to prove they belong.

America does not belong to one political party. America does not belong to a bloodline. And it certainly doesn’t belong to one man.
