CONGRESSIONAL BLACK ASSOCIATES STATEMENT ON THE THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF THE JANUARY 6TH INSURRECTION

WASHINGTON D.C. - Today, the Congressional Black Associates (CBA) released the following statement on the third anniversary of the January 6th Insurrection:

"On the third anniversary of the January 6th attack on the United States Capitol, we must all pause and reflect on the danger that filled the hallways of the historic grounds where we work.  Today is a time to rededicate ourselves to protecting the democratic values our country was founded upon, including free and fair elections and peaceful transitions of power.  

As an organization, we continue to condemn the brutal acts of terror upon members of Congress, Capitol police officers, and staff who were present that day. We hold deep gratitude for the Capitol police officers who stood on the front lines to protect democracy and mourn those lost in the aftermath. Congressional Black Associates' commitment to helping Capitol Hill staff feel safe and secure in their work environment remains steadfast as we move forward as a country."
