On Jan. 6, 2021, bloody insurrectionary violence interrupted the peaceful transfer of power. Today, America is still caught in an epic struggle between selfish forces of rule-or-ruin autocracy & the unyielding defenders of constitutional democracy all over America.

Five years ago today, Trump encouraged his supporters to attack Congress, the Capitol, and our democracy. I mourn for the lives lost and for those injured in the violent attack. Today is a reminder that we must not become numb to political violence. I am committed to defending our democracy.
