On the recordJanuary 13, 2021
January 6 was a horrific day for our country, for our democracy. The Capitol was breached, the blood of our defenders spilled, all because of a lie that the elections were stolen, a lie that has infected this Nation as perniciously as the pandemic. President Trump is the source of that lie. He has perverted and betrayed his oath to defend the Constitution, attacking the foundation of our democracy by inciting his supporters to violence. He is not fit to serve and is a danger to our country while he does. I too pledged to support and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I will uphold that oath.

For me, accessible air travel is a must. In fact, I can confidently say that without it, I would not be able to do my job effectively.
