Katie Phang

Thank you for listening.

Thank you for believing in survivors.

And thank you for standing with us as we fight to protect the next generation.

Please, everybody, let's please support Charlene right now and please just show her a round of applause for the courage.

This is why we're fighting.

Thank you, Charlene.

Look, it got real on this stage, right?

I mean, I think a lot of the time, Katie, people feel like politics is...

It's just theoretical.

It's just people giving speeches.

It's just people talking.

But these stories that you've heard tonight, this is the reason that we elect people to office because these are not theoretical problems.

These are human tragedies and they're all manmade.

Orange manmade, specifically.

And what's happened to some of these folks, it is criminal.

and somebody ought to go to prison for it.

For abusing absolute, it is unbelievable that we live in a country that has a Justice Department and so much injustice is being done under its nose.

This is shameful.

These stories that we've heard tonight, this should not be happening in the United States of America.

And so this is not about speeches.
