@daratreseder Hey! Congrats on your new role. Share a toast (or a tea) at the NYC Chief flagship the next time you're in town? I sent you a note over there 🥂
Most New Jersey businesses are small businesses, and almost half of them are women owned.
With $850 million in grants and loans from NJEDA and $50 million for the Main Street Recovery Fund in this year’s budget, I am committed to seeing those businesses continue to grow.
In honor of Queen Elizabeth II, landmarks across New York are illuminated purple tonight and flags on all State buildings will be flown at half-staff tomorrow.
Queen Elizabeth II was a force on the world stage for decades and an inspiring female leader who leaves a lasting legacy.
New York joins the people of the United Kingdom and all those who are mourning in honoring her life, and we send our prayers to her family.
For more than 70 years, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II had been a strong, steady, and reassuring presence on the international stage. The United States, and the 14 presidents who have served during her reign, benefited from her unwavering support and friendship.
“There goes my Hero”
@foofighters lost Taylor Hawkins and his son at 16 years of age delivers this kind of performance in his memory. To do this after losing a parent, your dad….breathtaking. 😢 https://t.co/4zo3K8Y5Rv
But this... this is a start. And I'll take one step forward as a start while also recognizing that there are many steps to go. Both things can be true.
Do we need to fix the insane cost of tuition in the US, as well as crazy student loan interest rates? Yes.
Is $10,000 of federal loan debt relief for people making under $125k (plus the rest of what was just announced) a good start? Yes.
Both things can be true.
I want everyone to have more access to education. I want today's kids to have less reliance on privilege. I want new graduates to have that chain around their ankle removed sooner than mine was. I want tuition and interest levels to be reasonable again. I want the system changed.
President Biden's announcement today about student loan debt relief has upset some people who believe it's unfair. I acknowledge that resentment, and also, while we're on the subject of unfairness, I have some thoughts for your consideration. (thread)

I applied to the CRB to serve the community, and I trust that you’ll continue to Tweet when you have opinions to share, feather-related and otherwise 🙃. Feel free to DM me anytime 👍🏻.
Walked into a clothing store for the first time in literally years and I would like to know where the bottom half of all of the shirts have gone.
