YouTube Description
as posted by the channelHouse Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) spoke Wednesday at a ceremony unveiling a congressional time capsule on Capitol Hill as part of the nation's semiquincentennial celebration.
The four-foot-tall capsule, which is meant to be sealed for the next 250 years, includes a mix of items intended to reflect where the nation is today.
"I hope that when members of the 244th Congress open this time capsule and view the items that we have placed inside of it, they'll be able to learn from our history, our experiences, and our values and carry that with them as they work to ensure that the next 250 years in American history might be even better than the 500 that will have passed at that time," he said.
