WASHINGTON –Today, Rep. Marcia L. Fudge (OH-11) released the following statement on the killing of George Floyd:

“Where is the U.S. Justice Department when you need them?  How many times do Black men have to say ‘I can’t breathe’ while being restrained and posing no threat to anyone?  It’s happening in communities around the country.  It happened in mine as recently as 2010.  When will it end?

“How many times do communities find themselves searching for answers? 

“What would make anyone hold their knee on the neck of another human being for more than eight minutes?  Where is the humanity?  Where is the accountability?  When will we see ‘justice for all?’”
