The striking mask moment followed a blunt eulogy from Obama. While praising the amazing civil rights work done by Lewis, Obama urged political leaders to do actual work the late congressman would appreciate. Namely, strengthen the Voting Rights Act.
"You want to honor John?" Obama said. "Let's honor him by revitalizing the law he was willing to die for. And by the way, naming it the John Lewis Voting Rights Act — that is a fine tribute. But John wouldn't want us to stop there, just trying to get back to where we already were. Once we pass the John Lewis Voting Rights Act, we should keep marching to make it even better."
