Thank you, Stephen, for continuing to spotlight Ruwa. I think her perspective about the Palestinian cause and how politics play out here in the United States to reinforce Israel's unchecked power and the role of language in both sides of that struggle is hugely important. Ruwa, I am sorry that you are having to speak out and be this person to raise your voice, but you are doing it so graciously, and I imagine your grandfather would be so proud of you. My best to you both.
Ruwa is my district representative! She's been an outstanding leader for Gwinnett. I admire her courage and her vision. Imagine what she has had to overcome as a Muslim woman and trying to penetrate the political barriers as a state representative in the South. I'm very proud to have her representing us. This is the kind of leadership we need in politics today.
