"I know that some of my colleagues, when incidents happen, they can blend in and people won’t actually know who they are or what sides they’re on. But I don’t have that luxury as a Black woman in the United States Congress.” Important piece in @19thnews: 19thnews.org/2022/01/januar…
@19thnews “I don’t feel safe,” Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) tells @cjnorwoodwrites & @marielpadilla_. “I would feel differently if it felt like we had learned something here and we could see change. ... There’s nothing.”
“I was on a Zoom call from the car, and suddenly a whole group of people started running next to the car on both sides, surrounding our car, and my heart just went right into my throat,” Rep. Ann McLane Kuster (D-N.H.) said.
“Then suddenly I realized it’s a group of people jogging on Capitol Hill. But my nerves are shot from worrying about the risk.”
