Majority Whip Clyburn Statement Following Passage of the Respect for Marriage Act
08/28/2022
Tweet - "In 1963, thousands of Americans participated in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom to help bring a new dawn to our nation. As we reflect upon what those demonstrators sought to achieve, it is clear that we have made progress, but we still have a long way to go."

07/26/2022
Tweet - "Today marks 32 years of the Americans with Disabilities Act, landmark legislation to help ensure every American has equal opportunity in our society. As we celebrate our progress, may we continue the work to build a more inclusive, equitable and accessible America."
07/25/2022
Tweet - "Today, I celebrate the life and legacy of McKinley Washington. He was a fierce advocate for the Sea Islands of SC and spent his life fighting for equity and a better quality of life for the communities he represented. May he rest in power."
07/25/2022
Tweet - "House Democrats have already passed legislation that will benefit American families; like our bills to cap the monthly cost of insulin at $35, protect access to contraception, and protect marriage equality. We need the Senate to send these bills to the President's desk."
07/18/2022
Tweet - "When I was elected president of my local @NAACP youth council at age 12, I never imagined I would one day earn their highest honor: the Spingarn Medal. I hope to live long enough and serve well enough to prove myself worthy of this prestigious honor."
07/02/2022
Tweet - "Today marks the 58th anniversary of the 1964 #CivilRightsAct, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, religion, sex or national origin. Many of those protections are under attack. We must stay committed to making America's greatness accessible & affordable for all."
07/01/2022
Tweet - "I was pleased to see so many familiar faces at the SC Human Affairs Commission's 50th anniversary gala. Much has changed in race relations since I led SCHAC, but one thing that has remained constant, is this organization's commitment to creating a more equitable society."
06/28/2022
Tweet - "Today marks the 53rd anniversary of the #StonewallRiots -- the historic day that the LGBTQ+ community rose up against bigoted police violence to fight for their rights. We must remain vigilant and continue the fight for LGBTQ+ equality."
06/24/2022
Tweet - "Today's SCOTUS ruling further establishes right-wing Republican justices' radical disregard for individual rights & settled precedent. They've eliminated a woman's right to control her body and given it to politicians. The American people disagree. They will be heard."
06/20/2022
Tweet - "Today, I was honored to serve as Grand Marshall for this year's South Carolina Juneteenth Freedom Fest Parade. This #Juneteenth, take time to celebrate with family and friends, reflect on the progress we have made and continue to make in our pursuit of a "more perfect union.'"
06/01/2022
Tweet - "Happy LGBTQ+ #PrideMonth to everyone celebrating. This month we are reminded that all love should be celebrated, and we remember the countless lives lost to hate crimes against the LGBTQ+ community."
05/24/2022
Tweet - "I'm not giving up on this country. Every democracy has its own challenges, and ours is no different. But we must come together as Americans -- Democrats and Republicans, Black and white, rich and poor -- to keep this pursuit of a more perfect union going."
05/17/2022
Tweet - "This International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia & Transphobia, we're reminded of the dangerous power of hate & raise awareness of the human rights violations against the LGBTQIA community worldwide. As Maya Angelou said: "No one of us can be free until everybody is free."
05/17/2022
Tweet - "On this 68th anniversary of Brown v. Board, let us remember this: anything that has happened before, can happen again. We must preserve our history. My bill, which is now law, will do just that by expanding the historic sites associated with the landmark ruling."
05/12/2022
Tweet - "We must know our history to avoid repeating the worst mistakes in our past. That's why I'm pleased my bill to commemorate and expand Brown v. Board of Education historical sites was signed into law today. Thank you to @SavingPlaces for your tireless work on this issue."
05/04/2022
Tweet - "On the 61st anniversary of the first Freedom Ride, we remember the 13 men and women, including my friend John Lewis, who rode for racial equality. Lewis was beaten in Rock Hill, SC during that ride, but he always kept his eyes on the prize. May we honor their bravery."
05/01/2022
Tweet - As we celebrate #AAPIHeritageMonth, we are reminded that the greatness of America lies in our diversity. This month we recognize the culture and contributions Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders continue to make to this country."
04/30/2022
Tweet - "As a former history teacher and student of history, I believe we must learn from our past. This week, the House took a major step towards preserving our history by sending my bill to honor and expand the historical sites associated with Brown v. Board to the President's desk."
