It has been the honor of my life to serve on @POTUS’s COVID-19 Health Equity Task Force. I am ecstatic to hear that our report has been delivered to the President.
A big thank you to my colleagues, @HHSGov staff, @coformahealth, and @DeloitteHealth. You make our country proud.
🚨 NOW: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis NAILS IT PERFECTLY

In honor of @USMC LCpl. Jack Pizzo joining the fleet in Okinawa, this week, my ‘79 911SC is heading to @Barrett_Jackson, where 100% of the hammer price will go to Space Coast @HonorFlightNet.
Nope - manager offered it for free, but gave the cashier $40.
On the way back to the office, stopped by CVS, and bought you a $50 Waffle House gift card!
Sen Pizzo with a Waffle House menu in the Senate chamber & listing off qualifications for governor. James Fishback & his supporters are upset with Pizzo effort to create a process to challenge whether a candidate is eligible for ballot

NEW: Four state senators are pushing the DeSantis admin to reunite a girl with her mother.
One senator is representing the woman in court.
The mother's relatives say the senators don't know the full circumstances.
