I am deeply saddened by the senseless acts of violence and the loss of innocent lives today in Minneapolis. My heart goes out to the students, their families, and faculty. No child should face danger at school or in church. (1/2)
On #WomensEqualityDay we honor the women who struggled hard & long to win the right to vote. Because of them, our democracy includes our voices – and that makes our country stronger.
