Today’s decision by the Supreme Court undercuts voting rights in this country — and makes it all the more crucial to pass the For the People Act and the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act to restore and expand voting protections. Our democracy depends on it.

We can’t defeat hate with more spite. We can’t defeat dishonesty with more lies. We can’t defeat cruelty with more malevolence. We need love. We need truth. We need decency.

“There were times when my husband & I were digging in the penny jar, when we struggled in life. This is a reminder of that. It’s important to make sure others know this food is here for them. I want to let them know it’s OK,” Jennifer #NationalVolunteerAppreciationWeek

Rosa Parks sparked a movement on this day in 1955 when she refused to give up her bus seat. Today, let’s honor her legacy and the courage she embodied by living by her words: "To bring about change, you must not be afraid to take the first step. We will fail when we fail to try."

Unbought and unbossed, Shirley Chisholm paved the way for me and so many others. On her birthday, we celebrate her brilliance and boldness to break down barriers, fight to increase the minimum wage, and speak for those who otherwise wouldn’t have a voice in the political process.
