Congressional Black Caucus 2019 Swearing-In Ceremony

On behalf of the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, Inc. (CBCF), we want to express our sincere appreciation to the generous supporters of the 2019 ceremonial swearing-in of the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) members of the 116th Congress.

This historic event on January 3, 2019, honored the rich legacy of the CBC and welcomed nine additional CBC members whose personal stories are woven in the fabric of America. The occasion was filled with special memories as the members were sworn in before their families, supporters, constituents, and friends from near and far.

Known as the “Conscience of the Congress,” the Congressional Black Caucus stands strong at a record 55 members! CBC members hail from every region of the country and represent 82 million people, including more than 17 million African Americans in 28 states and U.S. territories.

Nearly 35 companies and organizations joined CBCF in honoring the largest class of CBC members. Their generosity helps uplift the CBCF’s mission of advancing policy initiatives to shape tomorrow’s solutions and empower the next generation of African American leaders.

A new year brings promise and opportunities to honor and advance our legacy and our mission. We look forward to continuing our work together in 2019!

Sincerely,

Tasha Cole
Vice President, Resource Development
