The bench was crafted by a law enforcement officer in North Carolina who spent some 200 hours hand-crafting the bench.

“This is our hope, and the bench says on the bottom … , ‘May this century mind us to see those who feel alone, to choose kindness, and to remember every light,’” Jessica Gorman said.

After showing off the bench, Gorman invited Rep. Mike Lawler to be the first to sit on it on stage.
