We will build a world from the rubble that these people make and one day, 20 years from now, when this is all just a terrible memory, we will be proud of the work that we are doing today.
Stay strong y'all.

I think the exact words I used at the time were that I would “burn the session to the ground.”... I don’t mince words. So the next morning, on February 23, I started filibustering, and pretty much haven’t stopped since.

You know it’s a special day when staff from the @nytimes are in the building taking photos of our @armisteadschool 4th graders. That’s right @BaltCitySchools! We are getting published in the NEW YORK TIMES! #CLN3theplacetobe #BmoreEdchat
It’s going to be a rough Monday in the cafeteria

5th graders at @nwmmshartford got a hands on #STEM lesson from @UConnhealth today. As part of the Indoor Air Quality Project, they built and decorated their own air filters! The filter that looks like the White House will be delivered to the @WhiteHouse & @flotus!

Workers at the @MOMsOrganicMrkt (pictured with Baltimore Councilwoman Odette Ramos at center in red) at the Rotunda are voting on 8/26 on creating the company’s first union. The workers at this store do so much for our neighborhood; I hope they get everything they want.
I traded my blood, sweat, and tears to afford graduate school through Peace Corps and Americorps service. I am beyond excited for my fellow educators laboring under debt to gain any relief possible. You should care about other people.
In keeping with my campaign promise, my Administration is announcing a plan to give working and middle class families breathing room as they prepare to resume federal student loan payments in January 2023.
I'll have more details this afternoon.

Very excited to share our latest research on immunological features of #LongCovid. Our 2+ year collaboration with @PutrinoLab with many other fantastic colleagues and patients - Mount Sinai Yale Long COVID (MY-LC) study by @sneakyvirus1 et al. 🧵(1/)

I can not explain how the decision to fail to address neglected tropical diseases troubles me. The arrogance to think diseases do not move with populations and that climate change will not make ranges expand weighs on me. We are not safe until we are all safe.

This surge comes during a period of critical funding and staffing shortages for the Agency. The NLRB has received the same Congressional funding of $274.2 million for nine years as costs have risen. Adjusting for inflation, this is a budget decrease of 25% since FY2010.

Even if Long Covid risk is only 10% per infection (grey line), and 2 infections a year, your odds of getting Long Covid reach more than 50% in just over 3 years.
If infection damages your immune system, as several studies suggest, it'll likely happen faster - or be worse.
