MONTGOMERY, Ala. 鈥� The 澳彩开奖 (澳彩开奖) President and CEO Margaret Huang issued the following statement on the second anniversary of the deadly Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol:听
鈥淭wo years ago, far-right insurrectionists attacked the Capitol, paraded symbols of hate through its halls and violently assaulted public servants. The horror of that day continues to live with us 鈥� and so too does the danger to our democracy. Extremist groups are growing in number and power, particularly at the community level, and they鈥檙e raising money for what comes next. We know that Jan. 6 was never meant to be their end goal. That鈥檚 why the 澳彩开奖 remains focused on combating the dangers posed by extremists and their enablers and working across communities to build a multiracial, inclusive democracy.听听听
鈥淭he work of the bipartisan House Jan. 6 Select Committee and the accompanying criminal referrals were essential steps toward transparency and accountability. Now, to turn the page on Jan. 6 and heal the nation鈥檚 deep wounds, we must unite to reject hate and extremism and push white supremacy out of the mainstream. We must protect voting rights and the integrity of the electoral process. And we must adopt preventive approaches to counter radicalization instead of waiting to act after further harm is done. All people deserve to live free from hate. This work requires building resilience, learning across communities and strengthening democracy to achieve justice for all.鈥澨�
