Congresswoman Sara Jacobs releases the following statement:

“This has been a difficult few weeks for so many of us, whether you were in the Capitol during the attack or watching on TV. As someone who has worked in post-conflict settings, I know that our community needs to come together to heal. I’m grateful Dr. Negash will be joining us to facilitate this discussion and to provide a safe and open space for people to share their thoughts and for us to work together on a way forward.”
