I'm incredibly saddened for our country today as we lost a patriot in Ash Carter. From his work to decapitate ISIL to building the most diverse military in our history – Ash made America stronger.

This is especially sweet remembering all the times Congress came within inches of getting it done, and knowing so many kept up the effort these last 12+ years. It's a huge victory for a healing planet - and a shot in the arm across the world where work remains. Onwards! (2/2)

I'll never forget meeting this extraordinary, Greatest Generation embodiment of the word “citizen.” Rest in Peace to WWII’s last living Medal of Honor recipient. He inspired everyone lucky enough to meet him - and his legacy should inspire all now and forever.

An honor of a lifetime to meet WWII hero and Medal of Honor recipient Hershel “Woody” Williams at the groundbreaking of the @MohMuseum in March. His foundation confirms he passed away this morning at the age of 98. Rest In Peace, sir.

Congratulations to Her Majesty as she celebrates her Platinum Jubilee. I’m in awe of the history she's not just lived, but shaped, and the quality of her contribution even more than its longevity. She is grace and strength personified.

In 1970, I joined millions in organizing the 1st #EarthDay. That movement led to legislation that improved our lives & protected our planet. Today, activists everywhere are working year-round to combat the climate crisis & hold leaders accountable. Together, we can do this.

It's very hard to imagine a Senate without . Patrick has been a model of what a Senator can and should be, from the way he's served, to the lessons he shared today. He and Marcelle, together (and they are always together!) don't just love Vermont, they are Vermont.

Today I'm thinking of our Senate "Band of Brothers" - especially Max, who made it home to heaven just in time to give a hug to John McCain on this holiday that meant so much to them and their lifelong work for veterans. To all who served, we say thank you - today and every day.

Life is about making choices, and we're facing the biggest one yet. The report makes it clear our window is narrowing, but it's not too late to act. We must choose to earnestly respond to the climate crisis while we still can.
