On Thursday morning, the CBCs leaders will appear at the Democratic National Committee to formally endorse Clinton for president, through the CBC political action committee. The group will then disburse its African-American lawmakers to states where black voters are crucial, particularly in South Carolinas Democratic primary on Feb. 27.
Its one thing to endorse and do nothing. Its another thing to endorse and to go to work, said Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-N.Y.), chairman of the CBC PAC. These lawmakers are, Meeks said, people that can actually testify [to] the work that Hillary Clinton has done.

I loved Rep. Meeks quote.
