RIP Coretta Scott King


Today we mourn the loss of what I would like to call the "First Lady" of the Civil Rights Movement. Mrs. King was more than just the woman behind the man but an integral part of the Movement. Mrs. King was the support at home that is necessary for a public servant while she remained on the forefront of the movement. After the death of Dr. King, Mrs. King continued in his legacy.

As the 109th Congress confirms Associate Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito, we must not forget the legacy of the King family. We must continue the fight for social justice and equality. We must continue the fight for education, health care and jobs for our people. And we must fight this Culture of Corruption which is doing nothing but hurting our people more. Together America can do better and we must do better in the name of Rev. and Mrs King.
