As Chair of the Civil and Human Rights Committee, my journey to help pass the Juneteenth Package of Bills has been deeply personal, seeking to honor our ancestors' history.
These bills are more than pieces of legislation; they are a testament to the American spirit—a spirit that rises to meet the demands of justice and equity.
The Juneteenth Package of Bills was introduced as a package deal to support the tenements of Juneteenth, rooted in the principles of the '3 Rs': Rectify, Restitution, and Resolve.
The recent passage of four additional bills is a crucial step toward justice, equity, and healing, demonstrating our commitment to dismantling systemic racism.
