Rayshard Brooks did not have to die. His life mattered. But if there is anything the past six years has taught us, it is that too many police departments and elected officials throughout the United States, the lives of black people do not matter. Rayshard Brooks needed a guardian to keep him safe.
Thank you for all that you do as leaders of the Georgia Legislative Black Caucus – you are on the frontlines of helping us through this pandemic – and I'm honored to join this evening for this important call.

Good morning!
We are here again and I must say that I am extremely excited about this year's competition. That's not to discount any of the previous competitions but this competition has some truly special pieces.
Good morning Chairman Shuster and Ranking Member DeFazio.
I want to first express my gratitude in returning to this committee after a 6-year hiatus. I have always appreciated the important bipartisan work of this committee, and as the nation moves forward, the work of this committee becomes all the more crucial in ensuring America's ability to lead in the growing global economy.
