Today is historic. A record number of women -- 102 in all -- will be sworn into the House of Reps. When I first came to Washington in 1997, there were less than 60 of us. For my colleagues and I, this growth is heartening but a long time coming. Let's keep up the momentum!pic.twitter.com/iJcQ7geuml

I'm not naive. I know that we cannot control the other branches of government. The Senate will work its will. And the president may still reach for his phone to tweet insults & name call. But we can & should be the example of how Congress should operate.pic.twitter.com/vzi68r4wb1

@HouseDemocrats to run the House of Representatives#ForThePeople & our rules package is our 1st chance to chart a new course.
