Honoring the Life and Legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Today and Every Day

Today, Monday, January 20, 2019, is Martin Luther King, Jr. National Day of Service, the annual observance recognizing civil rights legend Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. To commemorate the occasion, U.S. Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) issued the following statement:

"Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. famously asked, ‘Life's most persistent and urgent question is: what are you doing for others?' My constituents in Ohio's Third Congressional District, as well as people across the country and world, are answering that call by pledging to serve their community. So, I challenge you to answer Dr. King's call to service too—and there is no better time to start than today."
