Thompson Issues Statement on Threats Against Tougaloo College Following Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s Commencement Address | 2025-05-06 | 2025 | 2025-05 | Democrat | House | MS | Bennie G. Thompson | T000193 | benniethompson.house.gov | benniethompson | https://benniethompson.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | Washington, D.C. – Today, Rep. Bennie G. Thompson (D-MS) released the following statement on threats against Tougaloo College following Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s commencement address: “It is unfortunate that a day of celebration at Tougaloo College was met with attempts by extremists to overshadow the moment and intimidate those in attendance. Their threats, aimed at undermining Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett’s powerful commencement address, failed. The Tougaloo community remains proud, strong, and unmoved. “Tougaloo College is known around the world and has long been an agent for change during some of our nation’s most difficult times. Congresswoman Crockett is one of the most sought-after voices in the U.S. House of Representatives, and we were honored to have her speak. “I stand in solidarity with the Tougaloo community and commend Congresswoman Crockett for her inspiring message to the graduates. Under no circumstances will we be intimidated by fear.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T00:49:36Z |
