Voters have rallied to achieve crucial victories in a diverse group of states, and I've been glad to support them. We are on the march, and we aren't stopping until all women across the country can access safe and legal abortion care.

Her strong and decisive approach to the pandemic and the mass shooting at Christchurch — leading with pragmatism, facts, and resolve — reflected her approach to climate action, too, and I look forward to seeing where her commitment to service will lead her next.

Prime Minister 's decision to step down is a loss for the global community as well as the people of New Zealand, but I have no doubt she'll find new ways to remain at the forefront of issues she's most passionate about, including climate change and gun safety.

“The time is always right to do what’s right.” There’s no better way to honor Dr. King’s life and legacy than to follow his wisdom - and no shortage of opportunities for all of us to put it to use, today and every day.

I’m thrilled to be hosting the inaugural Partnership for Healthy Cities Summit in March with @BloombergDotOrg, @WHO and @VitalStrat here in London. Toxic air makes us sick from the cradle to the grave. That's why we've made cleaning up London’s air pollution a priority.

It was an honor to welcome Pope Benedict XVI to NYC in 2008. His visits to the World Trade Center and a synagogue - the first time a pope had ever visited an American synagogue - reflected his commitment to healing and peace.

Barbara Walters was much more than a pioneer of broadcast journalism who helped break open the field for generations of talented women. She was also a legendary New Yorker, a generous supporter of charitable causes, and, I'm lucky to say, a great friend.

And yet the progress we’ve made is still far short of what’s needed. Ten years after the death of 26 young children and educators, it is still far too easy for people who pose a danger to themselves or others to buy guns, as it is for those with criminal records.

In the aftermath of the massacre, I met with family members of those killed, and I took to heart what they told me: the best way to honor their loved ones is to turn anguish into action and help spare other families from suffering the same unimaginable grief.

Today, as we remember the 26 people killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School 10 years ago, most of them young children, let’s also remember the outrage we felt that day, when the horrible realization hit us: Not even elementary schools are safe from America’s gun violence epidemic.

This is a great day for equal rights in America, and a powerful testament to how organized and effective advocacy can lead to laws that guarantee fundamental rights — rights that are too important to leave to the Supreme Court's changing politics.
