John Lewis died yesterday at the age of 80. He was a crusader for civil rights and voting rights. Continue his fight. Stand up for what is right. And vote not only at the national and state levels but also at the locally as well. That will honor his legacy and make our America better and stronger.

“In so many ways, John’s life was exceptional. But he never believed that what he did was more than any citizen of this country might do,” former President Barack Obama wrote. https://t.co/HRwZSS88Hw pic.twitter.com/vZkNcJxCSF
