house 02/27/2025 - 119th Congress
We're advocating for a resolution that aims to honor and preserve the rich history of Freedmen's Settlements in America. Our goal is to invest in the documentation, preservation, and support of these historically significant communities to acknowledge past injustices while fostering opportunities for their growth and resilience today. This legislation recognizes the importance of these communities and seeks coordinated efforts to protect their legacies for future generations.
