“Tomorrow is Wear Something Red Wednesday to Bring Back Our Girls. I thank Leader Pelosi for her unwavering support, as well as all of my other colleagues. I thank Representative G.K. Butterfield, Curt Clawson, Karen Bass, Trent Franks, Barbara Lee, Gregory Meeks, and Sheila Jackson Lee for joining me and the escaped Chibok schoolgirls for a candlelight vigil in front of the State Department last Wednesday all in red. At the very same time in Nigeria, United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Samantha Power, met with other escaped Chibok girls and praised them for their bravery. Ambassador Power promised that President Obama had not forgotten and America will not give up until the thousands of women and girls kidnapped by Boko Haram were freed. You can watch a piece featuring the candlelight vigil and Ambassador Power's trip at 12:35 a.m. on ABC Nightline tomorrow night. We will continue to highlight this issue through our words and our actions. Please wear red tomorrow. Please continue to tweet, tweet, tweet #bringbackourgirls.
