3/3 From what I'm seeing from the right and elements on the left is they would love to cut our Congressional power. If we let them win, we could have half the Black representation in Congress that we do now. We need to push back on this. We must fight and not allow it to happen.

1/? There I was born there were 14 Black people in Congress. One Black Senator. Fifty-one years later, we have 66 Congress people. That is approximately 12% of Congress and almost a representation of our population in this country. We have 5 Black Senators. That is 10% of the Senate.
