As part of his visit to Washington DC, President Irfaan Ali is today expected to meet with the Congressional Black Caucus on Guyana and US relations.
The Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) comprises mostly African-American members of the United States Congress. It is currently chaired by Represen-tative Steven Horsford from Nevada.
On its website, the CBC states that since its establishment in 1971, it has “been committed to using the full Constitutional power, statutory authority, and financial resources of the federal government to ensure that African Americans and other marginalized communities in the United States have the opportunity to achieve the American Dream.”
