[Alvaro Bedoya @BedoyaUSA]

This is my first week @FTC. I feel lucky to serve alongside @linakhanFTC, @RKSlaughterFTC, @FTCPhillips, @CSWilsonFTC, and the extraordinary career staff. Working together, I hope we can help the people who need it most.

We're thrilled that Founding Director @alvarombedoya has been confirmed to the FTC. See below for a statement from Alvaro.

[Alvaro Bedoya @alvarombedoya]

It is the honor of my life to be nominated to serve on the FTC. When my family landed at JFK in 1987 with 4 suitcases and a grad student stipend, this was not what we expected. Thank you @JoeBiden and @linakhanFTC, thank you Sima, my love, mom, dad, Pablo, our families. Vamos.

“It includes universal access to preschool for 3 and 4 year-olds by 2030, expanding college and career opportunities in high school, establishing a minimum starting salary of $60,000 for teachers by 2023 + shows a high understanding of the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future” /2

Great (and entirely unsurprising) to see @JohnBKing lay out a bold, comprehensive and equity-focused vision for Maryland schools. /1

This is what people in apartments off of Twinbrook Parkway in Rockville woke up to. The man who gave me this video lives on the third level and says he woke up to people screaming then saw this ⬇️ @7NewsDC

@CaitlynnPeetz14 @Daniel_Schere The GoFundMe for Melkin Daniel Cedillo's funeral expenses and family is here. These things are hard to write about. But the community has rallied and already reached the $20,000 goal. https://t.co/Y35UzKc14e

[Alvaro Bedoya @alvarombedoya]

A teenager died in the flooding from Ida not a 10 minute drive from our home.

[Steve Bohnel @Steve_Bohnel]

I am struggling to comprehend what the family of Melkin Daniel Cedillo is going through right now. Here is the GoFundMe to pay for funeral expenses. https://t.co/Y35UzKc14e

These are amazing scholars, but astonishing that only one woman (the incredible @daniellecitron) and one person of color (my wonderful colleague @paulohm) on list. No women of color. 🚫👩🏽‍🏫 1/
