Italy nailed it! As she said, Rep. Sykes works hard everyday to improve access to good paying jobs, healthcare, and safe communities. Keep up the good work, Italy – there’s no limit to what you can achieve. Happy #BlackHistoryMonth
Meet Italy Pullman, a third grader at Helen Arnold CLC in ⁦@akronschools⁩. She dressed up as ⁦@RepEmiliaSykes⁩ during her school’s #BlackHistoryMonth2025 program in #Akron. Hmmm. Looks on brand.

Robinson begins his remarks by calling himself a "servant leader" and invoking the work and determination of his ancestors. The challenges he faced, he said, are stepping stones.
