Preserve historic civil rights sites and support local investment

Terri Sewell supports federal preservation efforts and investment for historic sites in Alabama’s 7th District, including sites tied to the civil rights and voting rights movements. She says preserving and sharing this history can strengthen public understanding and support economic growth in the district. She also says she will continue working to preserve civil rights and voting rights sites at historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs).

In their own words

I will continue fighting to preserve the civil rights and voting rights sites at these historic institutions.
