Massachusetts lawmakers embrace equality and justice on MLK Day

In honor of #MLKDay I want to reflect on the work of Bryan Stevenson and the Equal Justice Initiative ⁦@eji_org⁩ he started. I saw ⁦@JustMercyFilm⁩ on his work this weekend. Dr. King’s work demands we are all warriors for equality & justice, today and every day. pic.twitter.com/P2ktPsODtI

"Our nation is in a fight for its very heart and soul these days – a fight to ensure that we live up to our highest ideals of liberty, justice and equal rights for all, and I am here to say that the @MA_Senate stands with you in that fight, all the way." #MLKDay #MLK #mapoli pic.twitter.com/Hh9b3nrP4b

Honored to attend Boston’s 50th annual Martin Luther King Memorial Breakfast.

Joined @marty_walsh, @RepPressley and @SenMarkey for an important #MLKDay conversation about re-committing ourselves to Dr. King’s values as we face today’s challenges. pic.twitter.com/Vd87xL4sLM

On #MLKDay, I urge you to remember his profound words.
