We are all ordinary people in extraordinary times. What I did isn’t special, it’s the same thing that drives us to volunteer at a homeless shelter or donate to a food bank: the idea that if something is broken, we can work to fix it.

Rep. Andy Kim was devastated to see the smashed furniture, broken American flags, cigarette butts and other debris left behind by the pro-Trump mob that ran wild in the US Capitol. So the New Jersey Democrat found a trash bag and helped clean up. cnn.it/39a5cei

Congressman Kim, it is special. I cried when I saw you photo and read what you did. Getting on your knees in the middle of the night and joining the janitorial staff cleaning up after the insurrection shows true leadership and love for our country. Thank you.

My son is a junior @ CHHSE, who volunteered to help w GA runoff. It was heartbreaking to know that the same day of the GA win also brought such mayhem. Being able to share this photo of you, and explain that you’re an alumnus & local rep was very meaningful for me as a mom.ThankU

You made Mister Rogers wisdom happen that is why it was so special to us. "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, “Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.” - Fred Rogers.

Special, maybe not. But it shows your character and that says so much about you and the type of leader you are. Thank you.
