Cori Bush actually said...

"We cannot continue to take these hearings serious when we are talking about crime if we are not going to talk about gun violence."

"We, in Congress, have the obligation to finally extend statehood to the residents of D.C."

"congressional interference in D.C.'s local affairs and the denial of statehood have very real consequences for D.C. residents."

"The data is clear on gun violence. The numbers do not lie, and yet, we are ignoring it."
