Today is also the anniversary of the flawed Citizens United ruling by #SCOTUS that allows the voice of the wealthy few to have undue influence in our elections and our democratic process — making our country inherently less equal and less just, a far cry from Dr. King’s vision.
This is also Day 31 of the longest government shutdown in our nation’s history. As Martin Luther King would have made clear if he were here today, our democracy is stronger when we communicate with each other, and the best policy comes from collaboration.
So it is on this day that I want to reiterate to you that I am working hard to represent your interests during this very challenging time, and I will continue to engage in a dialogue with you.
