I call upon public officials, educators, librarians, and all of the people of the United States to observe this month with appropriate programs and activities that highlight and honor the myriad contributions of African Americans.

You've showed the great strength of America through your work—and that is your good heart.
Those who have lost their precious children are facing a grief no parents should ever know.
We are grateful to the first responders and volunteers who are working to find the missing and comfort the grieving at Camp Mystic and along the Guadalupe.
We know our words cannot help, but we believe the prayers of so many Americans will.
