Hey Chuck @NBAonTNT- We heard you haven’t been to Minnesota in 20 years. Good news, our Borealis service from Chicago to the Twin Cities launches TODAY! 🚄💨

Hop on that train and pull into the Twin Cities on our brand new route. Tell @theantedwards_ that Amtrak sent you!

@mweinberg2D @EFFFalcon What a coincidence. I came across a photo of that old Sanyo video recorder this past weekend. It’s legacy lives on. Has it been 10 years already?!?

Major congrats to Gigi Sohn on FCC nomination. I had the privilege of working for her earlier in my career and I could write an essay’s worth of tweets in support of her appointment. She is 2nd to none. https://t.co/CsEJGhrITM

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

@gigibsohn @Bartees_Strange @930Club Agreed. @ChrisJ_Lewis and I were there and @Bartees_Strange put on quite a show. He has a natural rapport with the crowd.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

@ChrisJ_Lewis @930Club @Bartees_Strange Great show and great times with great people. Awesome performance @Bartees_Strange!

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

@Bartees_Strange This should reside among the pantheon of all-time greatest positive affirmation tweets.

[STRANGE @Bartees_Strange]

let's also never forget how absolutely hilarious Sherwin was. that fool was capital F - FUNNY.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

Sherwin was living proof that a person could be brilliantly analytical, possess razor sharp wit, and be a genuinely kind person all at once. In my mind, no one’s name is more synonymous with public interest copyright law. I’m grateful to have known and worked with him.

[Ernesto Falcon @ErnestoOFalcon]

The news of Sherwin Siy's sudden passing today is incredibly sad. A powerhouse of an intellect, a good person, and someone whose contribution to the public interest Internet is going to be sorely missed.

I am a lawyer today because of how much my friend's legal mind inspired me.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

Additionally, I appreciate how candid the panelists were regarding what’s their take on what could have been improved with regard to pandemic relief and how they’re addressing increased partisanship in Congress.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

Great keynote panel from #advocacy21 virtual conference on lessons from the Hill’s top lobbyists. Highlights include strategies for conducting effective virtual Hill meetings and the need for using a variety of digital approaches.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

Really great #advocacy21 session on “Optimizing Your Advocacy Email Program.” Helpful strategy to segment more based on activity, less based on audience demographics. Great questions from some @Phone2Action partners regarding timing b/t emails and avoiding fatigue with advocates

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

Attending the #advocacy21 virtual conference and panelist discussed @Phone2Action’s campaign template to elevate their members’ personal stories for how they’ve been affected by COVID-19. Personalized messages are very impactful when contacting lawmakers.

[Lime @limebike]

We're excited to announce #LimeAction today, a way for our riders to get involved with local advocacy organizations in their home towns focused on safe streets, social justice and clear air.

It's all a part of creating more equitable, people-first cities:

Thank you for answering questions in today’s Twitter chat @ANAPresident #RNaction. Lot of helpful information. I look forward to learning more about how the public can support nurses during this challenging time.

[Jennifer Mensik Kennedy @ANAPresident]

Thank you so much to all of our great panelists, @Phone2Action and everyone who chimed in during this great discussion. We hope to have several more of these in the weeks ahead as we continue to #SupportNurses fighting against #COVID19. #RNAction

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

@ANANursingWorld Thank you very much! I’ll share these resources with her today.

[Martyn G @Brother_Martyn]

#RNAction how can we help provide mental health resources to nurses during this time? My mom is a clinical psychologist. Are there suggestions I can share with her to discuss with colleagues in her field?
