Infuriating that the public sector is allowed to purchase software that we all know cannot tell one brown skin or one Asian person from another. A recipe for injustice. https://t.co/0MRYJThuHz

As someone interviewed in the HistoryMakers archives, and a who was a history major in college, I am thrilled that 60 Minutes is covering the work of Julieanna Richardson and the HistoryMakers!

@Lawrence @TheLastWord got it wrong tonight. Cheryl Johnson is great, but Lorraine Miller was the first African American woman to become Clerk of the House of Representatives. Please correct the error.

@SenatorLeahy .@SenatorLeahy has lent his pen and his voice to some of the most important tech legislation of recent decades, as a lead sponsor of the USA FREEDOM Act, EPCA, the Video Privacy Protections Act, and much more. We’ve been honored to work alongside him. Thank you, Senator. 🙌🙌🙌

As @SenatorLeahy closes the final days of his remarkable tenure as U.S. Senator, @CenDemTech is taking a moment to thank him – for being an enduring ally in some of the most important tech policy debates of our time, since the beginning of CDT’s nearly three decade existence.👏👏
