Justice cannot stop at state lines

Unexplained deaths demand federal scrutiny and accountability.

Jason,   Nolan Wells would be 19 this week.   He should be celebrating with his family and looking forward to his future.   Instead, his family is still fighting for answers about how their 18-year-old son and brother disappeared on July 4 and was found dead two days later.   And Nolan’s family is not alone. Across America, Black families and other families of color have been left with unanswered questions after loved ones who have died under suspicious or unexplained circumstances.   Each case has its own facts. But the pattern of families being forced to beg for urgency, transparency, and accountability cannot be ignored.   Authorities owe these families more than quick conclusions and closed doors. They owe them the truth. As I told Don Lemon, the Department of Justice must investigate Nolan Wells’s death and the broader pattern of recent unexplained deaths of people of color—and hold state and local authorities accountable wherever the evidence reveals failures, misconduct, or civil rights violations. And when we take back the House, Congress must investigate these cases and make this a national issue.   ADD YOUR NAME: Demand a federal investigation to apply pressure on states and hold them accountable.  SIGN THE PETITION No family should have to become its own investigator. No family should have to fight this hard for the truth.   Thank you for your activism and all that you do.   In solidarity, Ro Wait!
