EXCERPT:
PRESSLEY: "Today the House Oversight Committee held a critical hearing about white supremacy and anti-Semitism. Our communities are made vulnerable daily by the occupant of the White House as this administration emboldens hate, anti-Semitism, and white supremacy, both through its rhetoric and its policy. I want to thank our witnesses for sharing their sobering testimonies with us today. Mr. Shaffir's experience as a Holocaust survivor must serve as a reminded to all of us that we cannot, we must not, look away. We cannot look away when our neighbors are subject to discrimination, bigotry, and persecution. We cannot set ourselves up to repeat the mistakes of our past. Our destinies are tied. Attacks on our Jewish and Muslim brothers and sisters are attacks on all of us. Attacks on our black and brown brothers and sisters are attacks on all of us. Attack on our LGBTQIA community and disability community are attacks on all of us. And no amount of gaslighting from this administration will convince us otherwise.”
