When I lost my son - I never could have imagined I would vote to pass gun safety legislation on the floor of the US House, but today I did. To the activists, parents, and everyone who fought tirelessly for gun safety reforms - this is the result of our organizing.

My father was our town’s only Black dentist, President of the Illinois NAACP, and an Army Dental Corps veteran. Happy Veterans Day to our service members who protected this nation and continue to inspire their communities.

I am appalled by the “heartbeat bill.” Women deserve the right to choose. To those standing up for choice in the Georgia state legislature - keep fighting. I will stand by your side every step of the way.

Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp signed the controversial "heartbeat" abortion bill, which is one of the most restrictive in the country.

Advocating for gun safety is not "disgusting," @NRCC . What is “disgusting” is that my teenage son was killed for listening to loud music. People are investing in our movement because they know we will make meaningful changes in Washington. Invest here:

After Jordan was ripped away from me, I did not stop being his mom. Every single thing that I do is out of the love that I have for my son. My love for Jordan is what I extend to the work I do in my community every single day.

This is hard work, and our gun safety movement is making tangible progress. Jordan, although you are not here to see it, we are winning this fight. For you, and for all the families who deserve safer communities -- we will win.

A local GOP official said my son was killed in a "drug deal gone bad." He later said Jordan was murdered by one of his "thug friends." Paul -- let me be clear: This is pathetic. I am regularly attacked with falsehoods, so please - help me fight back ➡️

Rarely is there an individual who sacrificed so much to make the world more just, but Congressman John Lewis did. I cannot even begin to put into words the contributions he made to the world. I love you, Congressman. May God rest your soul.

Today would have been Trayvon Martin’s 25th birthday. To his mother, Sybrina - today should have been celebrated with your son. No mother should ever have to experience the pain of losing a child.

Dear Jordan, A parent should never have to bury a child. After losing you, Mother’s Day has become one of the hardest days of the year. Each year I visit your grave - and this year I felt like we had to share our story. For you, and others lost too soon. Love you, - Mom

I have faced attack after attack from the far right - but that hasn't stopped my work for families of #GA06 . The House has already passed gun safety legislation for the first time in decades, and there is much more to come.

No mother should have to experience having their son ripped away in an act of hate. Wanda Cooper-Jones is now a member of a club that no parent should ever have to join. We will never forget Ahmaud Arbery's face.

Please - help support me in our fight for gun safety. We can win this battle, but we have to stand united. The NRA has thousands of big-money donors and super PACs, but I have a grassroots army of supporters. Chip in today to help me push back.⬇️

Then in 2012, my 17-year-old son was senselessly murdered by a man with a gun at a gas station. Our nation’s dangerous gun laws are the reason that I was never able to take senior prom pictures and graduation pictures or send Jordan off to college.

We must never forget the human impact gun violence has on our daily lives. Sandy Hook brought the loss of 20 children and 6 adults, while forever changing the lives of many more. I pledge to never forget the lives of those lost to gun violence.

2020: A GOP official falsely claimed my son was killed in a “drug deal gone bad.” Last week: The GOP nominates that official to the board that oversees my election. Outrageous. Share & sign my petition DEMANDING the @DeKalbGOP rescind the nomination.
