“I am deeply honored to join the Caucus on Black Women and Girls as a Co-Chair next Congress and pick up the mantle from Congresswomen Bonnie Watson Coleman, Yvette Clarke, and Robin Kelly,” said Congresswoman Lateefah Simon. “I started my career working with young girls who were impacted by the criminal justice system, and I know intimately that in every aspect of life from school to the workplace — Black women and girls face unique opportunities and challenges. Congress can and should do more to ensure that our federal policies sees and serves Black women and girls equally, and I look forward to working with my Co-Chairs on this caucus to advance these efforts. Thank you to Congresswomen Watson Coleman, Clarke, and Kelly for the pioneering work you have done to advocate for our girls in Congress — the fight continues.”
