Rep. Alma Adams Statement Tonight

Washington, D.C. – Tonight, Congresswoman Alma Adams (NC-12) released the following statement:

"Today has been the hardest day of my time in Congress, but my resolve hasn't wavered. I am ready to certify the results of the presidential election as soon as we are back in the House chamber.

I want to call on my colleagues across the aisle, in the interest of national unity, to vote to certify the results of the election without objection. Now is the time - for the sake of our country - to reject those who fan the flames of chaos and destruction. We have the opportunity to end this day of division and destruction united as patriots. Let's do our Constitutional duty to make sure the voice of the American people is heard. We will reconvene and hopefully certify this vote tonight."
