Congressman John Lewis’ legacy reminds us that the pursuit of justice requires persistence. This week we remember him and mark six years since his passing. The torch he passed is in our hands and the work to protect Americans' freedoms continues, especially the right to vote.

Today, we honor John Lewis and his remarkable courage across the nation as he fought for everyone’s civil rights. He will be remembered as a champion of voting rights for future generations. We all must continue to “Get in good trouble, necessary trouble.” #DemsUnited
