    I wrote about our daughter's experience, the reality of pediatric brain cancer – 6 surgeries, infections, the ICU, seizures, chemotherapy, and her death. I spent weeks learning what we can do to save other kids. I'd be honored if you'd read & share.

    The political job industry is opaque, difficult to navigate, and 99% reliant on connections. We should do more to make the process more transparent and accessible. How can we build up the current + next generation of political staff if they never get in the door to begin with?

    Thank you, . For too long we've pushed grief, pain, heartbreak aside. These 500,000 Americans lives mattered. They were loved by their families. I know my two uncles who died of covid were, and they deserve to be remembered. 💛

    President Biden will order flags flown at half-staff for five days in memory of 500,000 Americans lost to the COVID pandemic, announces.

    WOW. Thank you, and all who have been working around the clock in support of Texans. ♥️

    One last update (I think!): We just hit $5 million raised for Texans across the state. Thank you ALL for your collective action when people need it most. Charity can’t replace policy, but solidarity is how we’ll face climate change and build a better world. 💪🏽🌎 Thank you 🙏🏽

    The president of the US this evening paid a visit to the apartment of Bob Dole, who three times sought that office and was the GOP nominee in 1996. At 97, Dole has Stage 4 lung cancer and starts treatment Monday. Imagine what it meant to him to have this show of respect.

    Neera Tanden is smart, experienced and qualified to lead OMB. I hope she's confirmed. We should always remember that there will be a Republican President in the future who will want to have his/her nominees confirmed.
