"I always believed that if you understand, you can act," Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee. "This week, we honor the life and work of a leader and model of being a Fierce Woman of our generation—the Honorable Sheila Jackson Lee. Rep. Jackson Lee passed last week, but her legacy of dedication to justice, equity, and reparations will live on in our communities and hearts. Rep. Jackson Lee served 14 terms in the House of Representatives and was an outspoken leader for women and children during that time. She introduced legislation to form a commission to address reparations and has been leading on this front for decades. She authored the Violence Against Women Act, and her legislative initiatives include introducing the Sentencing Reform Act, the George Floyd Law Enforcement Trust and Integrity Act, the RAISE Act, and the Fair Chance for Youth Act (to name a few). We are so blessed to have witnessed Rep. Jackson Lee's leadership and our deepest sympathies go out to her family, friends, and the larger community she impacted. To Fiercest of Fierce Women," Candance Chow, NextGroup Cofounder
