As public officials, we must all stand together and condemn racism and injustice and reject those individuals in our society who use violence to perpetuate systems of inequality. The racial injustice infecting our nation is abhorrent, as is the violence that now burns like a wildfire throughout our country. To manifest peace, we must remember to be quick to listen, slow to anger and compassionate in our discourse. We must take this opportunity to listen to the cries of our brothers and sisters and to follow the leadership of those trying to create peace and justice in our world. In all that we do, we pledge to listen, to lead and to work toward eliminating this injustice.
