Congratulations to our very own Member Rep. Cedric Richmond on your appointment to the Biden Administration.

This appointment is a clear recognition of both the critical role Rep. Richmond played in the Biden Campaign as national co-chair, as well as the significance of Black voters in delivering a decisive victory for Joe Biden.

Black communities continue to bear the brunt of a global pandemic, economic recession, and racial inequities. Now more than ever, our communities d...eserve champions for our causes at all levels of government, including in the highest office of the land.

Rep. Richmond will continue to be an arduous advocate for Black communities and his long record of service is proof of what is to come in the Biden Administration. Read the full statement from the Chair Rep. Karen Bass: https://cbc.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx…
