Loved every minute of time spent in Phoenix last week with the @USAccelerate team & partners!
I appreciate all of our @USAccelerate partners, including mayors from across the country, who visited Phoenix this week. As a critical avenue for cities to collaborate and share solutions, convening in Phoenix speaks volumes to the ongoing successful work we're doing.
