Yesterday, I joined officials in Baltimore to tour the wreckage of the Francis Scott Key Bridge and reiterate my support of federal assistance for clean-up efforts. To the families of those we lost in this tragedy: know that you are in our thoughts, our hearts and our prayers.…

Two years ago, ten shoppers at a supermarket were murdered in a hate-fueled shooting that targeted the Black community in Buffalo. Since that tragic day, our hearts have been with the victims & their families. And we won’t rest until we end gun violence & defeat white supremacy.

Today, we reaffirm our enduring bond with Israel and join them in celebrating 76 years of Israeli independence.  We remain united by our shared democratic values and effort to secure a future of security and prosperity for the region. Yom Ha’atzmaut Sameach!

While I’m sad that I could not be with those gathered in-person for today’s memorial, it is my profound honor to join in paying tribute to a spiritual giant of San Francisco: Reverend Cecil Williams.

On Mother’s Day, I begin with a family prayer: “Mother, I think of you, guardian angel of our childhood.” As we celebrate all the ways #MomsPowerUS today, we must advance an agenda that unleashes the full potential of women in our economy & invests in America’s working families.
