Judge Jackson’s confirmation was a historic moment for our nation. We’ve taken another step toward making our highest court reflect the diversity of America. She will be an incredible Justice, and I was honored to share this moment with her.
I seriously just had a BLAST celebrating women’s history with our history-making @vp and a group of truly extraordinary women. Not to mention our very dope Second Gentleman.

Catherine Lhamon has dedicated her career to advancing equity in schools and protecting students’ rights.
Her confirmation is a victory for students and families across the country.
On her birthday the @VP traveled to Capitol Hill casting the 2nd tie-breaking vote on Catherine Lhamon to be Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights at the Department of Ed. She is also presiding over the vote on the Freedom to Vote Act, which would protect the right to vote.
