There\u2019s a general fear that I have, my staff has, and the community at large has. We constantly hear from so many people across the country where their children\u2019s hijabs have been pulled off. My daughters have experienced this. I have experienced this as a young person in this country. We know what this kind of language that this member is using leads to. We know that the kind of man who leaves that voicemail for a member of Congress is not going to spare a young Muslim girl when he sees her taking the bus or walking home from school or when he runs into her at the grocery store. So we have a responsibility as leaders \u2014 words matter. Words can cause violence. She knows that the language that she\u2019s using, the audience that she\u2019s using it for is going to incite violence against myself and my community.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Tapper said, \u201cI can\u2019t believe that we are here in 2021 in the United States of America.
