Now, he faces his next fight. Sickness and disease can knock us down and make us feel hopeless, but they can also renew in us the desire and the will to push on, to resist. I know that John will meet this next challenge with the same strength and courage with which he has fought many times beforesit-ins at segregated lunch counters, the Freedom Rides, Bloody Sunday. John, my family and I, the entire Congress, and the American people are behind you as you fight this fight. We support you, and we are thinking of you as this next battle begins. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
