Rep-elect Cori Bush has just scored a powerful seat on the House Judiciary Committee and will become the first Black Lives Matter advocate to serve in congress.

According to Fox News, Nancy Pelosi announced on Friday, confirming Bush as one of the incoming freshman.

Bush has been an active participant in the fight against racial injustice and will use her new position to “affirm the dignity and humanity of Black and brown communities.”

“I ran for office on the promise of justice,” Bush, D-Mo., said in a statement. “Justice for Black lives. Justice for Michael Brown Jr. and Breonna Taylor. Justice for every community held back by racist systems and oppression. Today, I am proud to have been named to a committee with the power to bring about justice for all.”

Bush holds many roles. She’s a registered nurse, a single mom, and an ordained Minister. She became an activist after the death of Michael Brown.

After unseating a more traditional Democrat, Bush is in Congress, 10-term incumbent Rep. Lacy Clay, in a heated primary.

Bush also promised to bring the power of her “lived experience” to the Judiciary Committee.

“It is a power that comes from the pain of being a survivor of sexual abuse and domestic violence, of having been unhoused, stomped by the police, and forced to live paycheck-to-paycheck,” Bush stated.
