FDP Chair Terrie Rizzo released the following statement to mark MLK Day on Monday:

“Never a time a recent history has it been more important to pause and reflect on the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. At a time when our nation is so divided that Congress was forced to pass a resolution condemning white supremacy, when hundreds of thousands of federal workers have gone weeks without pay, and when our nation’s leaders want to build walls instead of bridges — we are reminded that work MLK, Jr. started is far from over. Today we celebrate his legacy of fighting for justice and equality, and reflect on how we can continue his fight.”
