When we passed the IGNITE Act to begin to clear the infrastructure backlog on HBCU campuses, I didn’t realize so much investment would go into *pipes.* What a wonderful rendition of our National Anthem by the @MorganStateU Choir. Go Bears! #HBCUvoices

It was a pleasure to welcome @HowardU’s 18th President Dr. Ben Vinson III to my office yesterday. Our conversation ranged from the work of the Bipartisan @HBCUCaucus to our shared vision for the future of HBCU education. I look forward to our continued partnership @HUPrez18.

A 1942 @ShawUniversity graduate and #TuskegeeAirman, 2nd Lt. Fred Lorenzo Brewer. #HBCU "We must never stop perfecting the cause for which they sacrificed." - @RepAdams
We honored 2nd Lt. Fred Brewer this morning, who made the ultimate sacrifice on 10/29/1944. 2nd Lt. Brewer gave his life for a nation that did not yet see him as an equal. Progress made since proved democracy works, and we must never stop perfecting the cause for which he died.
