MARKING UVALDE AND BUFFALO ANNIVERSARY
The SPEAKER pro tempore. The Chair recognizes the gentlewoman from
Massachusetts (Ms. Clark) for 5 minutes.
Ms. CLARK of Massachusetts. Mr. Speaker, 1 year ago today, the
American people were reeling from a white supremacist terror attack in
Buffalo, New York.
Families were grieving 10 Black Americans who had been targeted by an
ethno-nationalist and murdered for the color of their skin.
Loved ones were still organizing funerals for the victims of
America's latest mass shooting, and then we saw the breaking news from
Uvalde, Texas--another active mass murder; another crowd of desperate,
panicked parents surrounding a school under siege; another statistic,
21 shot and killed.
