Today I had the pleasure of meeting people w/ National Federation of the Blind who are in DC to meet their members of Congress. I was happy to help them find their way. Architect of the Capitol (AOC), adding braille to the directional signs outside the elevators would make the Senate office bldgs more accessible to all.

What does it take to run a virtual summit live across the world and around the clock, with attendees from at least 7 countries (and a small but dedicated staff of 4 people)? A lot of screens, caffeine, and commitment! 💻☕️💯 #ACRCsummit2023 Learn more - togetherthevoice.vfairs.com

This morning, my cousin David died after a painful battle with cancer. Thank you President Donald J. Trump for the call to "turn more cancers from death sentences into treatable diseases and provide more support for patients and families." Because it truly is personal for so many of us. 🙏🏾 #SOTU23

It is rare, RARE, that you will see racism so surprising that it even catches *black* folks off guard. But, literally nobody I talked to, even as recently as a few hours go, thought Tennessee would have the unmitigated gall to expel the two black guys and not the white woman.

I received the same alert for my daughter, and we provided her insulated ice water. The water fountain on their floor has not worked for months. Chancellor Ferebee, how are you making sure all children at school at least have access to cool water on a 90+ degree day with no A/C?

Breaking: We will have more to say soon, but this is excellent news and a win for Native American children, families and communities. We are proud to have been amici partners with NACC and others. Fantastic news! #ICWA #childrensrights washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/…

This ruling should light a 🔥🔥🔥 under states considering and implementing their own versions of ICWA! Your laws supporting native children, native family integrity, and tribal sovereignty are constitutional!
