September 10, 2012 Hoyer Statement on Bill to Move Frederick Douglass Statue into U.S. CapitolI’m pleased that the District of Columbia’s statue of Frederick Douglass will now be on display in the U.S. Capitol.

This statue will join the halls of the Capitol building as the third statue or bust of an African American, and is a wonderful tribute to a great Marylander and civil rights hero. |
