Saluting Sen. Edward Brooke's contributions during #BHM2026. His strong bipartisan leadership with Sen. Walter Mondale was critical to passage of the #FairHousingAct of 1968. The #FHAct is vital to ensuring that all people can live and thrive in vibrant, inclusive communities.✊🏾

While millions of everyday people throughout the nation are in the throes of a fair and affordable housing crisis, struggling to pay rent or afford a home. President Trump called this the "golden age of America." #SOTU2026

"We must enforce laws against racial discrimination. We must greenline the redline zones and zip coded zones and use Government-private partnerships to break this pattern. We must see the underserved markets as an opportunity for growth and development rather than exploitation..." -Rev. Jackson

President and First Lady Obama are the epitome of public servants. The racist vitriol direct at them is also showing up in our schools. Our children are being attacked by similar actions and statements. As Dr. King stated there comes a time when silence is betrayal.

Dr. #MLKJr.'s dream included fair and affordable housing for everyone. His legacy includes the passage of the Fair Housing Act. As we honor him today, join the @natfairhouse.bsky.social in working to end housing discrimination and creating equitable housing opportunities for all. 2/2
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rev. Jesse Jackson and other civil rights leaders joined the Chicago Freedom Movement demanding an end to discrimination in housing. On July 10, 1966, King delivered a major speech at Chicago’s Soldier Field, then led marchers to City Hall where he taped a letter to the door demanding Mayor Richard Daley open the city and end housing discrimination.

I don’t boo. I VOTE! Municipal and county elections greatly impact the quality of our daily lives. Hope you will cast your ballot today, if you didn’t during the early voting period. Lives, blood, sweat, and tears were sacrificed for us to have the ability to vote. #Grateful
I voted sticker.

AAG Kristen Clarke deserves her flowers for a job well done leading DOJ's Civil Rights Division. Wonderful to celebrate Dr. #MLK's legacy and her effective leadership, including settlements for over $150 million from banks and others through the #CombatingRedlining Initiative.

2. Signed the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) into law requiring financial institutions to meet the credit needs of the communities in which they operate. The CRA was intended to serve as a tool to address disparities in credit access in low-income neighborhoods and communities of color.

Join the @natfairhouse.bsky.social as we commemorate the Equal Credit Opportunity Act at 50. The landmark law made it possible for women, people of color, and others to equitably access credit and is key to closing racial wealth gaps. Fair lending is in all of our best interest.
