2022 State of the Union Response from Rev. Dr. Starsky Wilson
In last night’s State of the Union address, President Biden welcomed and told the story of Joshua Davis, a 13-year-old from Virginia who lives with type 1 diabetes. The teen, celebrating his birthday with the entire nation, has been advocating for school safety and health since he was four years old.

He centered America’s children in the public policy debate. Now, we have to keep them there.
