I gained so much from every exchange we shared, from every speech I read or heard and from afar before we ever met. Your life is proof of what is possible when we channel the most profound attributes of our humanity towards the pursuit of justice and goodness for all.
Imagine @POTUS approval if the economy wasn’t setting records for growth, if 20 million people weren’t lifted from poverty and if jobs weren’t being added a super fast clip.
Thank you to State Senator @JoshNewmanCA for supporting our campaign to flip #AD38. Senator Newman has been a tenacious fighter on behalf of California’s working families and a strong voice for democracy—I’m honored to have his endorsement.
This makes imminent sense. You cannot work in public safety and fail to your part to keep the public safe. Police, fire and sheriff employees should be leading the way on vaccine.
BREAKING NEWS: @POTUS & @FEMA have agreed to extend Project Roomkey funding until the end of 2021. This is major.
It means California can continue our life-saving homelessness work as COVID variants continue to spread, reimbursed 100% by the Feds.

Any way you look at it, multi-modal street design is simply MUCH more efficient. It moves, holds & serves more people within the same space. More trips with less space and public cost, better public health, and lower emissions/pollution per trip. Via @NACTO#citymakingmath

Do you think the U.S. is heading for the same kind of involvement in Afghanistan as it had in the Vietnam War or do you think the U.S. will avoid that kind of involvement this time?
Same as Vietnam 18%
Will avoid that 77%
(ABC News/Washington Post Poll, 3/7-10/02)
I pray that @JoeBiden, in light of the catastrophic failures of multiple administrations in Afghanistan, does the moral thing and accepts as many Afghan refugees as possible. Look to Canada, and many European countries, who accept proportionately far more refugees than we do.
Got my CA recall election ballot guide today. Very telling that folks who want to recall Gov. Newsom made no mention of vaccines, masks, lockdowns or anything COVID related in their official argument. No mention of French Laundry either. What are they most mad about?

This summer, Illinois has been hit with record-breaking heat. In 2019, flooding caused over $6.5 billion in damage to our communities.
Our choice is simple. We either destroy our planet or save it. It's time for #ClimateAction. Now.

Here’s what the GOP want you to believe:
-you don’t need to get vaccinated
-climate change is fake
-women shouldn’t control their own bodies
-gun violence isn’t a problem
Here’s how we stop them in CA:
-get vaccinated
-vote NO on September 14th & reject the Republican led recall
Just what we *don’t* need in CA right now — Larry Elder or one of the other vax deniers in the Governor’s chair. Vote “NO” on the recall on Sept 14th.

The conservative radio talk show host, who is leading the field of challengers in the California recall election, urged fans to listen to a COVID-19 vaccine skeptic. https://t.co/Y2SbMXe0Mb

This Spanish city has been car-free for 19 years. 12k people have moved into the city centre since the ban. The Mayor says vehicles don’t have more right to public space than people — & he’s been re-elected 4 times since banning cars. Pontevedra via @WEF:
CA is leading the nation once again. Earlier this week, we announced that all CA state employees would need to show proof of vaccination or get tested regularly to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
We applaud the federal government for doing the same.
