Statement from the President - NAACP

"There's no statement. There are no words. I'm shattered for the community and frustrated by the lack of action by the government that should be working for the people. Every time it's just more thoughts and prayers - the only thing this Congress seems to be able to do successfully. Congress, do your job. Don't just post a tweet, pass a bill. Kids are dying."
