 Hello, Columbia. I thank all of you for your support to raise awareness about domestic violence and helping support victims in our community. As you've heard from Councilwoman Devine, there's still so much work that needs to be done in our community, and especially across the country. Recently, the Violence Policy Center reported that South Carolina ranks 11th in the nation in the rate of women murdered by men. This is the first time in the 27-year history of the study that South Carolina has not been in the top 10. While on its face, it may be a positive sign, it doesn't tell the whole story. Since 2014, the rate of women being murdered by men has increased by 19% nationwide, and South Carolina's dismal rank of 5th last year would have ranked 10th in the most recent study. This year has added to the many challenges we face on a daily basis. In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, calls for help in relation to domestic violence have increased nationwide and in our community. It's so important that we continue to spread the message of hope to all of our citizens, and reassure them that we're here for them, and we're ready to help at any moment. Again, I thank you for all that you've done in our community to speak out against domestic violence, but please note that our efforts don't just end today or this month. We must continue to fight against the census violence, and I'm proud to fight along with you. Thank you, and Godspeed.
