Sen. Salazar Statement Celebrating Black History Month WASHINGTON, DC - Today, United States Senator Ken Salazar released the following statement in celebration of Black History Month. “Today, we mark
the beginning of Black History Month, a time to recognize and celebrate
the many contributions that African Americans make to our Nation’s economic,
cultural, spiritual and political fabric. This month is a time where
we take pause to reflect on our Nation’s history and honor the struggles

and equality. As we celebrate this month, we recommit ourselves to the
continued pursuit of freedom and equal justice for all, every day of
the year.” ###
