The League of Women Voters of the Space Coast stands in solidarity with the League of Women Voters of Minnesota and League of Women voters of Florida in condemning the senseless and unnecessary death of George Floyd at the hands of law enforcement. The events in Minnesota underline, yet again, the need to address systemic racism and social justice issues for Black and Brown communities throughout America.
