“My real point is that we need to get serious about domestic terrorism. The lives lost through domestic terrorism is compelling and increasing. Until we get serious about the actions of the Oath Keepers and the boogaloo boys and the Nazi wearers and proponents, in light of the First Amendment, which as a member of the Committee on the Judiciary I highly respect, we are losing lives. Our children are in jeopardy. Misrepresentation is occurring about innocent discussion about race and history. Let us put that kind of attack aside. Let us find a way to deal with domestic terrorism to save lives in America. Mr. Speaker, I hope that I will draw upon my colleagues. I will be introducing legislation, as I have done, on dealing with this idea of bomb threats to universities in this instance, bomb threats to historically Black colleges last week and coming into this week. God knows what will be next. I pray for their safety, as I do all students and all Americans. We must stand against domestic terrorism. ____________________”
